Excerpt from Anecdotes of the Aristocracy, and Episodes of Ancestral Story, Vol. 2 of 2 When the young heart beats with excitement, enchanted by the ever-popular Arabian N ights when older eyes pore with delight over the cxag gerated romances which the troubadours of Provence brought into fashion in the thirteen th and fourteenth centuries, - and when we compare the style of life which can alone have given birth to such produc tions with that which we now see general around us, where material improvements command a con stantly increasing portion of public attention, and theories which are not to save or to make money are despised, it is not wonderful if we should exclaim, that the age of romance is gone for ever!
