My Past (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from My Past At last the eventful day came when we left Munich, and arrived late in the evening at Penzing, the station for Schonbrunn, whence a court carriage conveyed us to the castle, where we did not see anyone that night. I had a beautiful bedroom with a very large bed, over which hung a picture of a sinister-looking arch duke whose expression struck fear into my heart lest I should encounter him as a ghost. A dainty supper was served, but papa was firm about our not eating too much late at night. We must all Sleep well, he observed, for Cissi will be certain to pay us an early visit.
