Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Story of a Royal Favourite, Vol. 3 of 3 To the vehement vociferation of the house hold, which had continued so long as there appeared any possibility that the English cameriera was the victim of assassination, now succeeded a death-like silence. Lucy was so beloved in the house, - her gentle manners and dove-like eyes had so endeared her to those of whose language she could pronounce only the few phrases essential to her service, - that not one of her fellow-servants was able to utter a syllable of condemnation. Enough for' the fate of her miserable soul that she was a heretic Those who had broken bread with her and been familiar with the sweetness of those eyes which, like Cordelia's, did comfort and not burn, recoiled from contemplating the guilt of the suicide.
