Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Later Life Van Der Welcke woke that morning from a long, sound sleep and stretched himself luxuriously in the warmth of the sheets. But suddenly he remembered what he had been dreaming; and, as he did so, he gazed into the wardrobe-glass, in which he could just see himself from his pillow. A smile began to flicker about his curly moustache; his blue eyes lit up with merriment. The sheets, which still covered his body - he had flung his arms above his head - rose and fell with the ripple of his silent chuckles; and suddenly, irrepressibly, he burst into a loud guffaw: "Addle!" he shouted, roaring with laughter. "Addle, are you up? . . . Addie, come here for a minute!" The door between the two rooms opened; Addie entered. "Addie! . . . Just imagine . . . just Imagine what I´ve been dreaming. It was at the seaside - Ostende or Schevenlngen or somewhere - and everybody, everybody was going about . . . half-naked . . . their legs bare . . . and the rest beautifully dressed.
