A Ladder of Swords

Search

A Tale of Love, Laughter and Tears


On every height there lies repose, and so must we still be climbing, but alas! I have been climbing a ladder of swords these many years--from a woman's letter


(1904)


To The Countess of Darnley, Whose Home Contains Many Relics and Memories of the Spacious Times of Queen Elizabeth, the Friend of Michel and Angèle


A Note: There will be found a few anachronisms in this tale, but none so important as to give a wrong impression of the events of Queen Elizabeth’s reign.
