The Lion's Brood 

Driffield OSBORNE (1858 - 1917) 

"Centuries come and go; but the plot of the drama is unchanged, and the same 
characters play the same parts. Only the actors cast for them are new" For this 
timeless tale, we are taken back to the Roman forum. With the backdrop of the 
Punic Wars, we follow the fortunes of Sergius, a young man going off to serve 
and who impresses his general; and Marcia, the young woman he leaves behind, 
whom he loves, but who refuses to commit to any attachment for him before he 
leaves.
