Tarantella (Classic Reprint) - Softcover

Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from Tarantella

Here was a low wall which, disdaining the open gate, the young man leaped. The overcom ing of this barrier, however, served in no way to alter his surroundings; as before, he found him self among pointed cypresses and lettered marble tablets, wistful human protests against obliv ion. The tombs in this outer angle, indeed, pos sessed a pathetic quality not shared by those built snug and secure in the consecrated ground within For here lay the strangers and travelers caught up unawares by death in a foreign land and judged unworthy, by reason of their alien faith, to lie in the holy ground which the Church had blessed for her children.
