Excerpt from The Princess Dehra
Henry, who, it was said, had displaced him in the line of Succession, and was to marry the Princess Dehra.
And at her name every woman Of them curtsied and every man uncovered; blaming High Heaven the while, that she might not reign over them, when Frederick the King were gone; and well prepared to welcome the new heir if she were to be his queen.
At first the Duke had kept to the seclusion Of his own domain, wide and wild enough to let him ride all day without crossing its boundary, but after a time he came at intervals, with a companion or two, into the low-lands, choosing the main highways, and dallying Occasionally at some cross-road smithy for a word Of gossip with those around the forge.
