Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Woman´s Wit Scene I. - Sir William Sutton´s House - An Ante-room leading to a Ball-room. - Music as of a Ball. - Dancers seen in the further Apartment. - Visiters passing in and out. Enter, from the Ball-room, Walsingham and Bradford. Walsingham. Fair revels these Sir William Sutton holds. And all in honour of the city maid! Sure the whole town is here, such swarms pass in And out. Is it a match, as they report, Betwixt the maid and brave Sir Valentine? Bradford. In prospect, Sir; but yet I question much, If in a year hence, nearer than to-day. She of the spirit of conquest is possess´d Incontinently; victory but serves To whet the last triumph. Strange so long Lord Athunree did occupy her; but His station ceased, soon as Sir Valentine Aspir´d to fill his place. A grief it is, A maid with treasure past compare like hers, Of gorgeous beauty, with a mine of wealth, Should use her riches with such huswifry, As makes one pity her possession of them! Walsingham. Lo you, she dances, and, for partner, takes Lord Athunree, and not Sir Valentine. A novel measure that! know you its name? Bradford. No - ay! - a liberal measure! - See! - his hand Doth hold possession of her waist; while hers, Nothing repelling, on his shoulder rests, Permitting neighborhood so close, embrace Were scarce in privilege a jot behind. Walsingham. You know Lord Athunree? - his character? About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
