The morning sun, when it arose, shone bright and brilliant upon the valley of Altamonte--its gay castle, and its lake. But a threatening cloud obscured the sky, as Camioli raised his eyes and turned them mournfully upon the ruined priory of St. Alvin, and the deserted halls of Belfont.-- "Woe to the house of Glenarvon!" he said. "Woe to the house of my patron and benefactor! Desolation and sorrow have fallen upon the mighty. Mourn for the hero who is slain in battle.

Autorenporträt
Caroline Lamb (1785-1828) was a British novelist and socialite. Born Caroline Ponsonby, she married William Lamb, who later became the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom. However, Caroline's tumultuous affair with the poet Lord Byron, which ended dramatically, brought her much attention and notoriety. Her novel 'Glenarvon', loosely based on her relationship with Byron, was met with controversy due to its thinly veiled portrayal of real-life individuals.
