MP3 Audio CD. Remarkable Rogues: The Careers of Some Notable Criminals of Europe and America CHAPTER I A RUSSIAN DELILAH One day in a Russian country-house a girl of sixteen was presented to three men--a prince, a baron, and a count, and as she greeted them with youthful enthusiasm and _camaraderie_ she was quite unconscious of the fact that each of the three had asked her father for her hand. In the land of the steppes, girls develop quickly, and although Marie was very young in years she was a fully-matured beauty, tall, with fine features, a beautiful complexion, a divine voice, and enough charm for half a dozen ordinary women. No wonder the men were in love with her--she captured all hearts with her beautiful face and her musical voice--and when she had to be told of the proposals her father informed her that she could choose between the prince and the baron, for he disapproved of the count.
