Translated by Mary J. (Mary Joanna) Safford
A historical novel written in the late 19th century. Set against the backdrop of the 16th-century Dutch Revolt, the story explores themes of loyalty, patriotism, and the struggles between personal relationships and political duty. The narrative likely centers around the burgomaster of Leyden, Peter Van der Werff, and the complexities of his personal life as he navigates the turbulent political landscape of the time, with significant emphasis on the role of his wife, Maria. The opening of the novel introduces the characters and setting, vividly describing the city of Leyden in the aftermath of a Spanish siege. As the spring unfolds, the people are filled with a sense of rebirth and recovery. We are introduced to young boys, including Adrian Van der Werff, the burgomaster's son, who engage in spirited discussions about patriotism and the conflicts with the Spaniards. This lively exchange conveys the youthful energy and sentiments of rebellion present among the youth of Leyden. Meanwhile, Peter and Maria's relationship is portrayed through their interactions, highlighting Maria's longing for connection with her husband amidst the political turmoil. As Peter prepares to attend a council meeting to discuss the grave news of Louis of Nassau's defeat, the dynamics of duty versus love become evident, setting the stage for the unfolding drama.
