The Great Captain: A Story of the Days of Sir Walter Raleigh

Katharine Tynan - The Great Captain: A Story of the Days of Sir Walter Raleigh

The Great Captain: A Story of the Days of Sir Walter Raleigh

Synopsis

I never knew my father and mother, having been born into a time like that of the great desolation foretold by the Scriptures. They were the days of what I have heard called the Rebellion of the Desmonds, when that great league was made against the power of Eliza, the English Queen, by the Irish princes, which went down in a red sunset of death and blood. Indeed I myself had starved, like other innocents, on the breasts of their dead mothers, had it not been for the pity of him I must ever regard as the greatest of Englishmen, albeit no friend, but rather the spoiler, of those of my blood and faith.
