Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Gaston De Blondeville, or the Court of Henry III, Vol. 3 of 4: Keeping Festival in Ardenne, a Romance; St. Alban's Abbey, a Metrical Tale; With Some Poetical Pieces
Here was miniatured a stately chamber, in part richly illuminated. Under a canopy, was a long sleeping-couch, but no person appeared there. In another part of this spacious room, Where the light prevailed less, sat one, who leaned thoughtfully on a table, his hand covering his eyes; another figure stood near, but so obscurely drawn, that for what designed could not he certainly known. Images, holding lamps, were pictured in the chamber. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
