Description

Excerpt from The Burning of Rome: Or a Story of the Days of Nero

There were three persons in the Imperial Chamber; or four, if we are to reckon the page, a lad of singu lar beauty of form and feature, but a deaf mute, who stood by the Emperor''s couch, clad in a gold-edged scarlet tunic, and holding an ivory-handled fan of peacock''s feathers, which he waved with a gentle motion.

Let me begin my description of the Imperial Cab inet, for such it really was, with a portrait of Nero himself.
