Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Felicity Crofton It was winter. Not the spurious winters of late years - seasons of rain, and mouldy dampness - but a time of snow, frost, and a cold so penetrating that it found a lodging even in the warmest corner of Bath. Christmas itself had been mild enough. It was not till the year was a month old that he bestirred himself to answer the gibes flung at his failing powers by a demonstration that his mantle was still white and his crown still of icicles if so it pleased him. The hills round the city had snow-clad summits, giving an oddly expanded look to the country. The big grey stone building that headed a combe to the south of the city looked a dirty drab before the virgin whiteness of the wide spaces. At the bottom of the combe there was a little lake spanned by an ornamental bridge, and standing there, looking up the hill, one could see the big building outlined against a faint blue sky. The skirting woods bent their snow-laden branches to the earth, and the mid-day sun, pouring down on it all, bedecked them with a myriad jewels.
