Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Niobe

He had no intention of frightening or overawing her; he only wanted to reveal to her what was at the bottom of his heart, to let her clearly understand that no contradiction or per suasion, or any kind of reasoning whatever with him afterwards, when he had quieted down, would be of any use. After a hurried walk round the room, during which he was apparently seeking an object on which he could vent his anger, he sat down again in his armchair.
