About this book

Two Penniless Princesses is a book by Charlotte M. Yonge. The contents list chapters titled, among others, Dunbar, Departure, Falcon and Fetterlock, and The Meek Usurper. Chapter 1 describes Dunbar Castle, standing on steep rocks above the North Sea, as not only inaccessible on that side but commanding a magnificent view from its donjon tower.

In one scene Jean answers that a braw sort of king could not hinder his mother and sisters from being stolen by an outlaw. Little Annaple calls out that there is a plump of spears coming over the hill. King Rene, who believed not a word against his nephew, intended himself to conduct the ladies.
