The King's Easter (Classic Reprint)
Spofford, Harriet Prescott Excerpt from The King's Easter

The Oriental ruby in her crown 'blazed no more hotly than that Oriental drop in her blood which fired all the rest. She saw the bounds of the kingdom etreat into far horizons, dreams of conquest curtained he sleep.
