"I long to study the purely national, purely natural character of
an Irishwoman." When Horatio, the son of an English lord, is
banished to his father's Irish estate as punishment for his
dissipated ways, he goes off in search of adventure. On the wild
west coast of Connaught he finds remnants of a romantic Gaelic
past--a dilapidated castle, a Catholic priest, a deposed king and
the king's lovely daughter Glorvina. In this setting and among
these characters Horatio learns the history, culture, and language
of a country he had once scorned, but he must do so in disguise,
for his own English ancestors are responsible for the ruin of the
Gaelic family he comes to love.
WHAT need'st thou ask, or I reply? Mere WORDS are for the stupid many; I've ever thought a speaking look The sweetest eloquence of any!
