Opis

Excerpt from St. Maur: An Earl's Wooing On the public road leading from the station there stood an old-fashioned, deserted brick mansion, sur rounded by a high stone wall and garden of wild shrubbery. All things about the place bore evidence of disuse, neglect and decay. The shutters of the lower stories were still closed and securely fastened, as they had been left years before; but above, where the Wind and storm had freer scope, some were barely hanging, whilst others had fallen helplessly to the ground, and were rotting and mouldering away. Flowers and Shrubs, at one time carefully planted, had, from year to year, silently dropped their seeds into the earth, and, uncultured and uncared for, had brought forth, some their ten, others their hundred fold, until the enclosure, save in places where the thick grass and coarser weeds choked the way, was covered with their many kinds. The higher parts of the stone wall had crumbled and fallen, whilst the once strong iron rods of the entrance gates were but thick layers of rust. Above the briars, which twined and interlaced them, could be seen the marble steps, stained and blackened by the damp of years.
