Celebrated Crimes, Vol. 2 of 3 (Classic Reprint) by Alexandre Dumas Pdf
Excerpt from Celebrated Crimes, Vol. 2 of 3 Now, priests and soldiers, men of letters and poets, nobles and commoners, were looking forward with terror to the government falling into the hands of a stranger and a young girl, and called to mind the words of Robert himself when following to the grave the body of Charles, his only son. At the moment when he passed the threshold of the church, he turned toward the barons of the kingdom, and cried, in a voice stifled by his sobs, This day the crown is fallen from my head: woe to me! Woe to you And now that the bells were announcing the dying agonies of the good king, these prophetic words occurred to the minds of every one.
