The prince is a man of great wealth and power, but he is also a lonely and unhappy individual who seeks solace in his books and his art.As the story progresses, the prince becomes increasingly isolated from the world around him, and he begins to retreat into his own thoughts and fantasies. He becomes obsessed with a beautiful woman named Madame de la Rougierre, who he believes can bring him the happiness he has been searching for.However, the prince's obsession with Madame de la Rougierre leads him down a dangerous path, and he soon finds himself caught up in a web of deceit and betrayal.

Trollope's masterful storytelling and vivid descriptions of the French countryside make this novel a must-read for fans of historical fiction and romance.But few towns, merely as towns, can be better worth visiting. In the first place, the volcanic formation of the ground on which it stands is not only singular in the extreme, so as to be interesting to the geologist, but it is so picturesque as to be equally gratifying to the general tourist. Within a narrow valley there stand several rocks, rising up from the ground with absolute abruptness.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
