Excerpt from A Lady of Rome They had only lived together two years when he had gone away, and observant people said that Maria had not grown a day older since, whereas they had noticed a very great change in her appearance soon after she had been married. It was quite absurd that at twenty she should have had a little patch of grey by her left temple just where the dark hair waved naturally. At that rate we should all be old at thirty. The observant ones had noticed another odd thing about Maria Montalto. Her girl friends remembered especially a certain fearless look in her eyes, which were not black, though they were almost too dark to be called brown, and used to be most wonderfully full of warm light in her girlhood. But she had not been married many months, perhaps not many weeks, when a great change had come into them, and instead of fearlessness her friends had seen the very opposite in them, a look of continual terror, a haunted look, the. Look of a woman who lives in perpetual dread of a terrible catastrophe. It had been there before her boy was born, and it was there afterwards; later she had been ill for some time, after which Montalto had gone away, and since that day her eyes had changed again.

Excerpt from The Empresses of Rome The fresh aspect Of this familiar story which I propose to consider is the study of the women who moulded or marred the succeeding Emperors in their failure to arrest, if not their guilt in accelerating, the progress Of Rome's disease. Woman had her part in the making, as well as the unmaking, of Rome. In the earlier days, when her work was confined within the walls of the home, no consul ever guided the momentous fortune of Rome, no soldier ever bore its eagles to the bounds of the world, but some woman had taught his lips to frame the syllables of his national creed. However, long before the commencement of our era, the thought and the power Of the Roman woman went out into the larger world' Of public life; and when the Empire is founded, when the control of the State's mighty resources is entrusted to the hands of a single ruler, the wife of the monarch may share his power, and assuredly shares his interest for us. Even as mere women of Rome, as smgle figures and types rising to the luminous height of the throne out of the dark and indistinguishable crowd, they deserve to be passed in review.

Excerpt from Lady Merton, Vol. 1: A Tale of the Eternal City The aspect of Rome had already been changed since 1870, when the Italians came in but to those who had not seen it prior to that date it was still the unique, the Eternal City. From this vantage, ground of the Pincian garden, except for the national flag flying at the Quirinal Palace, the spectator could easily believe that he was looking down on the Rome of the Popes.

Excerpt from Octavia: A Tale of Ancient Rome The agony of Gethsemane had barely preceded her birth in the magnificent City Of all the Gods, at a time when vice was enthroned, when sensuality was worshipped, when an apotheosis was ascribed to crime. In such a setting the revelation of a life so full Of horrors and so touchingly pathetic as that Of this rarely beautiful and unsullied Roman girl needs only the assurance, for which there seems to be foundation Of fact, that Octavia was a Christian, to arouse something akin to reverence for this victim of a debased Idea at the hand of the besotted monster who dragged her through the mire but could not destroy the whiteness Of her soul.

Excerpt from The Sorceress of Rome The darkness of the tenth century is dissipated by no con temporary historian. Monkish chronicles alone shed a faint light over the discordant chaos of the Italian world. Rome was no longer the capital of the earth. The seat of empire had shifted from the banks of the Tiber to the shores of the Bosporus, and the seven hilled city of Constantine had assumed the im perial purple of the ancient capital of the Caesars. Centuries of struggles With the hosts of foreign invaders had in time lowered the state of civilization to such a degree, that in point of literature and art the Rome of the tenth century could not boast of a single name worthy of being trans mitted to posterity. Even the memory of the men whose achievements in the days of its glory constituted the pride and boast of the Roman world, had become almost extinct. A great lethargy benumbed the Italian mind, engendered by the reaction from the incessant feuds and broils among the petty tyrants and oppressors of the country.

Excerpt from The Life of St. Agnes of Rome: Virgin and Martyr Three centuries were gone by since the blood of Jesus Christ had flowed upon Calvary, and the blood of Christians, meanwhile, was flowing continually, without other cessation than that occasioned from time to time by the weariness of the executioners. Still, however, the Gospel had penetrated even to the extremities of the earth. Christianity had transformed'millions of souls; a new world was about to go forth as from a new creation; it seemed but to await a last moistening dew of the blood of martyrs in order to burst into existence. The time was ap preaching, in fine, when the ransom of the world would be complete; one, and the last install ment, so to speak, remained to be paid, and the redeemed world would belong openly to Christ.

Excerpt from The Women of the Caesars The doctrine held by some philosophers and sociologists, that military peoples subordinate woman to a tyrannical regime of domestic ser vitude, is wholly disproved by the history of Rome. If there was ever a time when the Roman woman lived in a state of perennial tutelage, under the authority of man from birth to death - of the husband, if not of the father, or, if not of father or husband, of the guardian - that time belongs to remote an tiquity.
