Description
Excerpt from Odette: A Fairy Tale for Weary People
Far away, at the end of the long avenue of fragrant limes, wound the Loire, all amongst the ?owery meadows and emerald vineyards, like a wonderful looking-glass re?ecting all the sky;and across the river, like an ogre''s castle in a fairy tale, frowned the chateau of Luynes, with its round grey turrets and its long, thin windows, so narrow, that scarcely could a princess in distress put forth her little white hand to wave to the true knight that should rescue her from her terrible fate.
