Excerpt from The Victory of the Vanquished: A Story of the First CenturyAs Siguna, the German captive, sate at the tent door in the dusk, dreamily following the white line of paved way - whose sharp out line, defined against the dark borders of wood or herbage, was the only thing yet clea'rly visible - until it was lost in the darkness, her thoughts also lost themselves with it in a deeper darkness, and became more and more dim and sombre. Once, indeed, there had been need that she should be strong, and brave, and true: a free woman Of noble birth; the wife of a brave free man, honored among his tribe for his skill and strength in forging weapons and Wielding them, in Wielding the smith's hammer and the warrior's spear; the mother of boys and maidens who were to bear on the good name and build up the house and the tribe.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
