A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

Not from the hope of fame, or wish for praise; But that, in waning of her latter days, She willed her warning tale should see the light And whispered with her fading breath that IS hould soften nothing that she did reveal, But charter her confession with a seal Of manual pardon as I do hereby.
