Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Reminiscences of an Old Un The first thing I can remember vividly was being taken, at the age of about four, to the convent above the town of Funchal in Madeira. At the side of one of the waiting-rooms and let into the wall was a sort of whirligig affair in which food and other things were placed. It was then twirled round, and lo !and behold, whatever was in it was then on the other side of the wall and within the sacred precincts of the nunnery itself. I was placed by my nurse in the whirligig and shot round to the other side. There my memory ceases and wonder begins. Was I surrounded by poor blushing novices, blushing at the very thought that a man child had invaded their recesses, or was I perchance fondled by some old frump of an Abbess? I know not.
