Chap. XLVII.
THE LEAR OF ODENSE.
257

honour to his last abode, followed by his sorrowing
descendants. The will is read—the coffer opened—and
lo! they discover what ? a heap of stones—a just

The schloss gardens form the favourite promenade of
Odense. Here the military music plays in the evening.
But notwithstanding its position as a capital, its patron
saint, its cathedral, and its bishop (there was a dance
at the bishop’s last night), we were very glad to mount
the carriage, and move on along the tiresome chaussée,
its dulness alone relieved by an occasional picturesque
old church nestling among the trees. At last we again
see the waters of the Great Belt in the distance, and
drive into the little fortified town of Nyborg.
