Excerpt from The Spanish Outlaw, Vol. 1 of 4: A Tale
I am here separated from the best of mothers by an extent of country which I am astonished at having passed; in a land where all is foreign to me, and placed in a house of which the inhabitants are scarcely known to me; I look around and find neither relations nor friends. Naples, it is said, is one of the finest cities in the world, but to me, Naples is a vast and dreary desert. Ah! how cruel, how dreadful, is it to an affectionate heart, to be separated from all that it holds dear! This journey was undertaken at your desire; my resignation is a proof that my obedience and respect to your commands, to your most trifling wishes, is, and will ever be unbounded.
