Excerpt from The Path of Stars
A spacious lofty-ceiled salon in an old palace in Rome. Frescoes dim with age, yet rich in color, cover the walls. Through the large win dows there is seen the deep blue of the Italian sky and a glimpse of an occasional feature in Roman architecture; a mediaeval, battlemented tower, crumbling with age. Within, the somewhat barren grandeur of the room is broken by a mingling of old and modern furniture. Regal arm-chairs, in which a Doria might have sat, elbow divans with silken cushions. Beside a Venetian cabinet covered with barbaric carved monsters, is a tea-table inno cent with Dresden china cups and saucers. A grand piano, strewn with music, stands in a large space near one end of the room, and about it is a little group.
