Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Her Own Devices The young woman who swung into the glowing heat of the Circus Road, on a day of a recent July, met three persons. The gentleman who had lost his way while looking for a house thought that she was a fine girl, spoilt by red hair; the lady, calling in St. John´s Wood, remembered the reputation of the district, but noticing a brick-red bow on a blue skirt, condemned herself as uncharitable; the young man from Mills & Parker, general drapers, hesitated between nodding and bowing to a bargain customer. Miss Susan Stanier foresaw his hesitation, and passed him rather too unconsciously. Susan´s air, dress, gait, looks, and figure were challenging. A tall figure, set off by a brown jacket, with waistcoat bodice of blue check on buff, a brown skirt, and a sailor´s hat and a veil to keep off the sun, which had splashed the pink of her complexion as if it had been dredged with bran.
