Synopsis
Excerpt from The Pin in the Queen's Shawl: Sketched in Indian Ink on Imperial Crown; From a Conservative Stand-Point
If a stranger had, knowing nothing Of this people, found himself suddenly among them, he would, when he walked through their gardens and workshops, have said, Here are happiness and plenty; but had he listened to their talk he would have sighed, I have fallen among a race Of half-starved slaves.
