Book Description
Excerpt from De Rance: A Poem The plot of the following beautiful Poem was laid amid the scenes of the seventeenth century. The hero of the story, Abbot De Rance, the descendant of an ancient English family, was born in Paris, in 1626. His ancestors were high in office and of honorable rank. The Godfather of De Rance was the celebrated Cardinal Ricblieu. Mary de Medicis paid him special honors. Being born a titled dignitary, he was early destined to the profession of arms, but by the death of a brother he became at the age of ten, the eldest of the family. He, therefore, studied for the priesthood and became possessor of all the benefices belonging to his brother. When twenty-six, his father died, leaving him an annual income of more than $6000. Of high birth, great personal attractions, courtly manners, untold wealth, possessed of superior mental endowments, a commanding eloquence, glowing with the fire of youth, it is not strange that as temptations beset his path, he should abandon himself to delusive vanities; such was the sad result. He soon lost the spirit of his holy office, became fond of hunting, gaming, luxury and dissipation. Having formed an intimacy with a beautiful lady of high rank, his love for her became an unquenchable passion. The result of her seduction was premature death.
