A collection of local legends and descriptive sketches focused on a landscaped park and its environs, presenting scenes that range from the imagined spirits of trees and prophetic oaks to mournful apparitions, haunted banks, and folkloric water-beings. Vignettes evoke song, grief, funerary places, a castle dove, a mysterious stranger among the dead, and a hunting lodge, alternating narrative folklore with reflections on landscape origin, transformation, and the challenges of preserving the grounds. The tone mixes evocative natural description with historical memory and concern for heritage.
