It also provides a glimpse into Italian society and culture during the 19th century. Overall, ""A Siren"" is a compelling tale of a man's struggle to resist the allure of a dangerous woman and the price he pays for his weakness.But not even the low iron gateway was closed when Paolina reached the church. It stood partially open. After having stood a minute or two before the building to look round upon the scene, Paolina stepped up to the gate and looked into the church, but could see no human being. Within, as without, all was utter death-like silence. She shivered, and drew her cloak more closely round her, as she stood at the gate; for the healthy blood was running rapidly through her veins after her brisk walk, and the deadly cold damp air from the church struck her with a shudder, which was but the physical complement of the moral impression produced by the aspect of the place.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
