Perilous Persian Politics and Spanish Royal Death Tale
The piece recounts Miriwis speech to the Persian assembly seeking an accord with the Grand Seignior, a Tuscan prince’s illness, a grand hunting match at Fontainbleau, and a dramatic obituary portrait of Don Lewis King of Spain. It notes the Spanish king’s devout death, royal mourning, and the Queen’s teary appeal to the new regent, with reflections on Spain’s fragile succession.
