The setting sun sank lower, reflecting a ruddier glow on Gwashbrari's face; it seemed as if she blushed beneath the great King's gaze. A mighty longing filled his soul, bursting from his lips in one passionate cry--'O Gwashbrari! kiss me, or I die!'This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
