Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Roland Cashel, Vol. 2 of 2 And at last they find out, to their greatest surprise, That´t is easier far to be "merry than wise." Bell: Images. "Here is Mr. Cashel; here he is!" exclaimed a number of voices, as Roland, with a heart full of indignant anger, ascended the terrace upon which the great drawing-room opened, and at every window of which stood groups of his gay company. Cashel looked up, and beheld the crowd of pleased faces wreathed into smiles of gracious welcome, and then he suddenly remembered that it was he who had invited all that brilliant assemblage; that, for him, all those winning graces were assumed; and that his gloomy thoughts, and gloomier looks, were but a sorry reception to offer them. With a bold effort, then, to shake off the load that oppressed him, he approached one of the windows, where Mrs. Kennyfeck and her two daughters were standing, with a considerable sprinkling of young dragoons around them. "We are not to let you in, Mr. Cashel," said Mrs. Kennyfeck, from within. "There has been a vote of the House against your admission." "Not, surely, to condemn me unheard," said Roland; " I might even say, unaccused." "How so?" cried Mrs. Kennyfeck. "Is not your present position your accusation? Why are you there, while we are here?" About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
