Text Appearing Before Image:
in silent wonder.He played on and on, and when he finally ceased,Ericsson raised his bowed head, and with moisteyes, said Do not stop. Go on ! Go on ! I neverknew until now what there was lacking in my life.Ole Bull, one of Norways famous musicians, wasborn at Bergen on the Atlantic coast. Sent to theUniversity of Christiana, he was dismissed becausehe took charge of an orchestra at a theatre. Laterhe entered the University of Gottingen to studylaw, but fled the city on account of a duel. InParis he was reduced to such misery that he threwhimself into the Seine. Rescued, a kind ladyenabled him to appear in public as a violinist. Hewon and lost several fortunes. This story is toldof him. He once visited Berlin, with a letter ofcommendation to the King of Prussia from hisdaughter, the Duchess of Mecklenburg, He madehis first call upon the superintendent of the RoyalOpera House, who was offensively patronizing. Anhour was appointed on the following day foranother call at the Opera House.
Text Appearing After Image:
TKA VELS. 283 Ole Bull presented himself promptly at thedesignated hour. Where is your violin? demanded thesuperintendent. In the case, was the cool reply. * And where is the case ? At the hotel. * But did I not ask you to play for me? Excuse me, sir, answered Ole Bull, * I couldnot think you were in earnest. I play either formoney or for honour, and in this case neither is inquestion. But it is impossible for me to present you to HisMajesty without having heard you, replied theman, annoyed at the artists independent manner. If the request of the Grand Duchess, rejoinedOle Bull, is not a sufficient recommendation toHis Majesty, her father, I am content to leave thecity —and he did leave Berlin on that day. On the road between Hardanger and Sognefjordis the hamlet, Gudvangen, in a narrow valley, soshut in that it is not reached by the suns raysthroughout the whole winter. On both sides arelofty precipices, down which leap a dozen water-falls, some making single leaps of 500 feet. Nea
