The Emperor's Winding Sheet

An English boy, shipwrecked, hungry, and lost, finds his way into the court of Constantine where he is interpreted as a symbol of good luck and, as such, ordered to be kept always near the king.

First sentence: From where the boy was, precariously perched in the bending branches of the little orange tree, a wide and lovely landscape could be seen.
