Een verheugd volk en een jubelende stad E-text prepared by the Online Distributed Proofreading Team (http://www.pgdp.net) "Een verheugd volk en een jubelende stad" by Johanna Maria Sielof is a historical account likely written in the early 20th century. The work reflects on the joyful anticipation surrounding the birth of a royal child, specifically a princess, to the Dutch royal family, capturing the national sentiment and the numerous tributes being organized in celebration. The beginning of the text introduces a family in Amsterdam, particularly focusing on the three young daughters and their governess, as they navigate their daily lives while a significant event—anticipated with both excitement and dread—unfolds. The children are initially engaged in preparing for Christmas but soon find their routine disrupted as news about the potential birth of the princess spreads, reflecting the intertwining of personal and national happenings. The dialogue captures their eagerness, curiosity, and innocence, set against a backdrop of rigorous social expectations and the bustling anticipation of their community. The royal news sparks a range of reactions that foreshadow the celebrations to come, weaving together the threads of familial duty, youth, and civic pride.
