The Star of Bethlehem is about a married couple who, throughout the two years of their marriage, cannot find a common language. "The Star" is the ring that Allan, Earl of Lisle, gave to his wife Estelle for their engagement. When she loses it, she is very afraid that along with this ring all her chances of ever reconciling with her husband disappear. And only thanks to the thieving chimney sweep boy and Christmas, the heroes finally truly get to know each other for the first time. The story is included in the collections “A Regency Christmas” (1989); "Under the Mistletoe" (2003) Translation carried out on the website ZhabkaEditor: TessaCorrector: Daisy
