Description

Excerpt from Standard Novels, Vol. 2 November 2d. Civitella' s proposals to amuse the Prince, and to occupy his attention, have succeeded. His hotel 1s crowded every day with guests, who are treated in a most excellent man ner. He gives concerts and other entertainments, and is scarcely able to call an hour his own. The extravagant expense which this causes, you may easily conjecture. I would that gaming had not been introduced. He has lost, in a short time, very considerable sums. From whom he Obtains the money I cannot learn; for he wins nothing. That he may borrow great sums of the Marquis, I can believe; for, since he has persuaded him that he could command the world of Ghosts, he will do any thing for him. He seems to care for nothing, and is again a good companion. Concerning the last the Marquis triumphs not a little, because it supports his proposal 5 but the good man does not Observe the worm which gnaws the heart of the Prince, whilst his countenance is dressed in smiles. I Often see how he struggles with himself. The only thing which pleases me is, that he talks with respect upon religious matters, which he formerly treated with con tempt. From this we may hope that he will not destroy himself. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
