The Novice Of Saint Dominick Vol 2 Of 4 Classic Reprint

Excerpt from The Novice of Saint Dominick, Vol. 2 of 4 As soon as she had finished the very necessary and refreshing duties of the toilet, her attendant retired, and in a few minutes a page entered to inform her the count waited breakfast for her in the out ward apartment. Thither Imogen fol lowed him. The count was leaning pen sively over the back of a chair, on which his helmet and sword were laid. A few grey locks, no longer confined by the pressure of the weighty casque, played on a forehead more strongly marked with the traces of care than the furrows of age; and in his countenance was that mingled expression of benevolence and melancholy which evinced that he had learnt to appre ciate the sufferings of others by his own, and that the beneficent impulses of his heart were confirmed by the suggestion of his own internal feelings.
