About the Book

There were a great many persons who were ambitious of having a share of thepower which the young Czar thus left in the hands of his subordinates; and, amongthese, perhaps the most ambitious of all was the Princess Sophia, Theodore's sister, who was all this time shut up in the convent to which the rules and regulations ofimperial etiquette consigned her. She was very uneasy in this confinement, andwished very much to get released, thinking that if she could do so she should beable to make herself of considerable consequence in the management of publicaffairs. So she made application to the authorities to be allowed to go to the palaceto see and take care of her brother in his sickness. This application was at lengthcomplied with, and Sophia went to the palace. Here she devoted herself with somuch assiduity to the care of her brother, watching constantly at his bedside, andsuffering no one to attend upon him or to give him medicines but herself, that shewon not only his heart, but the hearts of all the nobles of the court, by herseemingly disinterested sisterly affection.Indeed, it is not by any means impossible that Sophia might have been at firstdisinterested and sincere in her desire to minister to the wants of her brother, andto solace and comfort him in his sickness. But, however this may have been at theoutset, the result was that, after a time, she acquired so much popularity andinfluence that she became quite an important personage at court. She was a verytalented and accomplished young woman, and was possessed, moreover, of a 5strong and masculine character. Yet she was very agreeable and insinuating in hermanners; and she conversed so affably, and at the same time so intelligently, withall the grandees of the empire, as they came by turns to visit her brother in his sickchamber, that they all formed a very high estimate of her character.She also obtained a great ascendency over the mind of Theodore himself, andthis, of itself, very much increased her importance in the eyes of the courtiers. Theyall began to think that, if they wished to obtain any favor of the emperor, it wasessential that they should stand well with the princess. Thus every one, finding howfast she was rising in influence, wished to have the credit of being her earliest andmost devoted friend; so they all vied with each other in efforts to aid inaggrandizing her
