Book excerpt: Excerpt from Memoirs of a Hungarian Lady When I first had the happiness of meeting you in the year 1841, my girlish enthusiasm for England attracted your attention. You encouraged me to tell you all that filled my heart and occupied my mind, and kindly listened to the attempted development of my young ideas. The sanguinary events of the last year have driven me and my family from our country; but the good land that is beyond the sea, the mighty Queen of Ocean, has granted us a hospitable asylum, to which your generous kindness wel comed me. You have again encouraged me to repeat my tale, no longer of the bright pictures then radiantly before my mind; but of the solemn tragedy, which has horrified East ern Europe.
