Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from An Object of Interest: A Farce; in One Act Scene I. - A Handsome Chamber. 1 G. Enter Mrs. Vernon, looking over a book of fashions, and reading, R. H. Mrs. Vernon. "The cambric or muslin under-sleeve terminated by a single bouillon, moderately full, and trimmed with a Valenciennes lace ruffle, falling over the hand." "The corsage is still worn low. Velvets are more a la mode than satins; but, the choice of color being limited, the complexion of the wearer must, in a measure, determine the selection." Well, certainly, relief from the monotonous "trappings, and the suits of woe," does furnish a woman with a pleasing employment. Roving amidst the endless varieties of costume, a thousand agreeable pictures present themselves to the fancy. If we can neither buy, nor wear, all the elegant decorations suggested by the modiste, one can at least enjoy the luxury of imagining how one would look in them. Enter Fanny, 1 E. L. II. Fanny. Please, ma´am, he´s come. Mrs. V. Who´s come? Fan. Your friend, ma´am - the gent with the ´starchers - Mrs. V. ´Starchers? Fan. Yes, ma´am; them Life Guard whisker things. Mrs. V. O, Mr. Simmerton. I´d no idea it was so late! Bid him come up; and do you and Barney see that the drawing-room is in order. (Exit Fanny, 1 E. L. H.) Enter Mr. Simmerton, L. H. 1 E. Mr. S. Well, beautiful widow, you see I take you at your word, and have come early to dinner. How enchanting you look! Divested of the solemn suits of black in which I have been doomed to see you shroud your charms, you cast a refulgence - Mrs. V. O, fiddle-de-dee! A truce to hyperbole, my dear Simmerton; you are come, and I´m glad to see you - (shake hands) - that´s enough. I asked you thus early to let you into a little secret.
