Excerpt from Castel Del Monte: A Romance of the Fall of the Hohenstaufen Dynasty in Italy

As the last glow vanished before-the purple of the oncoming twilight, dense thunder-clouds rose higher and higher above the Tyrrhenian Sea, and began swiftly to overshadow the ancient capital of the Caesars. Pall-like the black shadows fell upon the Piazza Colonna, hiding the lofty columns of Mars the Avenger, and darkening the gray pavements of the Forum of Augustus. The deep and ominous hush which preceded the storm was intensified by the silver chime of the convent bells from distant Aventine, their soft music singing the message of peace to the disturbed heart of nature and of man.
