Hugo Of Avendon

Excerpt from Hugo of Avendon: In Four Acts Gran. Two years ago the deed was in my hands That would have made us heirs the o man's will Had drooped before my own the sails were set; But all too late! Swift on the adverse wind Death beat across our track, and wrecked the barque Whose name was fortune. Dying ere he signed, His brother's son, this youth, became the heir. 'tis but a pause before we hold our own. Court's. An influence past, a present doubt begins; Its fall exposing to unmeasured powers The ground commanded by a force we knew.
