Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Rizzio, Vol. 1 of 3
She seemed to take no pleasure in any thing but music; and I endeavoured to sooth her with my voice and my instrument to the best of my power. But even music could not withdraw her mind from the painful thoughts which oc cupied it, and she would often break forth into half frantic exclamations of O J esu My God, my God! Can nothing afford him solace? Take my wealth; take my life; but let my last look be blessed with a healthful smile from the lips of my royal love - Where are the doctors; and where is their boasted medical skill? Is there none in all the world who can give my hero relief 2.
