Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Game of Life: An Original Comedy, in Five Acts Scene I. - Octagonal Room. - On one side a Ball Room, on the other a Supper-Room. - A small Conservatory in C. - Music as Curtain rises. - Smiler and Grimm discovered. Smiler. Here, my old friend and partner, we can be alone for a few moments. Grimm. Pooh! Don´t call me friend! You know you don´t feel it, for I have warned you too often; but I suppose those smooth-tongued flatterers, by whom you are usually surrounded, are more agreeable to listen to. I presume you know that you are on the verge of ruin! Smiler. Certainly - have known it for some time. Grimm. And yet we are not out of the sound of the expensive music with which you are tickling the ears of your fashionable friends, not one of whom would stretch forth a finger to save you if you were up to your throat in a mill stream! Smiler. Would any other? Grimm. I don´t know that they would - still, you needn´t fling away money upon them. Smiler. Bless your soul! I have no money to fling away! Grimm. Bills will come in some time or another. Smiler. When they do, it will be time enough to provide for them. Grimm. There´s a heavy account for wine come in, together with sharp hints from sundry jewellers and other indispensable leeches. Smiler. They must be paid! Grimm. A new carriage ordered - surely that is needless? Smiler. Good heavens! you don´t suppose I could allow Mrs. Smiler to walk? Grimm. It´s my opinion shell soon learn the way! Smiler. Anything else? Grimm. Yes, indeed, a whole host of small tradesmen´s bills. Smiler. This is no time or place to talk on such matters. They must wait! Grimm. And yet they need it most. Smiler. Can´t be helped! Grimm. Ah! rotten - all rotten! About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
