Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from The Bucklyn Shaig, Vol. 2 of 2: A Tale of the Last Century
The malady of which Angela was dying seems generally to awaken in the sufferers an intense longing to go home to die; and to Angela this was home. In health she had called England home, and the land of her adoption. But as the insidious dis ease tightened its hold upon her frail form, England faded away out of her mind, like the putting off something that'had never really formed a part of herself, and the innate love of Rome, the scenes and associa tions she was born to, came back with a double force the force of old love in creased by the dread of losing it. When ever Lord Clifford had suggested that she should be moved to Frascati or Albano, she had pleaded so plaintively to remain where she was that the question had to be dropped at once.
