Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heiress of Bruges: A Tale There is scarcely any where a town that presents so many points of quiet beauty as Bruges. Its aspect is soothing rather than striking. The memory of old times seems to rest upon the place, undisturbed by innovation or caprice. Recollections of splendour and refinement are unmixed with associations of feudal harshness; while fancy conjures up and embodies the spirit of chivalry in the garb of pure romance. The town may be broken, as it were, into innumerable fragments. Each street, canal, and square offers several distinct pictures; but the most pleasing is undoubtedly that from Rozenhoed Quay. It is somewhat strange that even the inhabitants of the quay in question can give no satisfactory derivation for its name. The most common notion is, that the place was so called from having been, for days beyond counting, a chosen spot for the sale of little religious images worn by the lower orders, and specially of the rude rosaries called Roosenhoedje. The French, during their posssession of the country, scorning this etymology, christened it the "Rue des Roses," a sentimental approach to the pronunciation of the unexplained word, and somewhat warranted from the close neighbourhood of the flower-market. But under the present government it has recovered its ancient name, and is at present thus alone distinguished. It is well, however, for those who value such obscure concerns, that records exist to prove the real origin of this title.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Heiress of Bruges: A Tale We may not now trace the citizen's real epitaph for the cemetery in which he was buried was totally defaced, by un sympathising improvers, many a year ago; when mausoleums and tombstones were alike demolished, and with them all the fame conferred by the stonecutter's chisel. But Van Rozen hoed derived his from a better source his own talents; and he did, in truth, and for his own sake alone, merit a monument more lasting than either stone or brass.
