Excerpt from Prince Fortune and Prince Fatal, Vol. 1 of 3 A gentle pair. People patted their blonde heads, and praised their pretty English faces; yet scarcely more English than anything else. Just such child heads may be met under many a Southern sky. Even upon Porto Venere's jagged and shadeless rock, famed for its black-browed women, even there will flock after you flaxen-haired, blue-eyed imps, bold, bare legged, and ragged, with skins for the sun to colour skins which soap and water would bring out white enough to match with any little Saxon of the lot! To the left of the blonde-headed heir is another boy, of an altogether different type, taller by. A head a paragon of boyish beauty; a confident air; a mobile face, where every word comes with a blush that is not shame but pride; dark, wavy hair; dark, dazzling eyes of varying hue, Violet or black or grey; a figure to match the face, lithe and straight, full of the fair promise Of manhood's grace and strength.
