Undine (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781419192036)

Undine is a German fairy tale by Friedrich de la Motte Fouqu�����. The story follows a water nymph named Undine, who falls in love with a knight named Huldebrand. The two get married, but their happiness is short-lived when Huldebrand's friend accuses Undine of being a witch. Despite her innocence, Huldebrand begins to doubt her and eventually leaves her. Undine, heartbroken, returns to the water and Huldebrand realizes his mistake too late. The story explores themes of love, betrayal, and the supernatural, and has been adapted into various works of literature, music, and film.No other proof can I or will I produce, but this I will affirm in the presence of God. The person who gave me this information was the very same who decoyed the infant Bertalda into the water, and who, after thus taking her from her parents, placed her on the green grass of the meadow, where he knew the duke was to pass.""This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
