Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The World´s Warrant "´Tis an awkward thing to play with souls." Upon an afternoon late in September, near the hour which upon Morganton´s social dial indicates the dinner hour, a gentleman and two ladies sat upon an upper gallery at the Midland in earnest, if not altogether grave, conversation. The gallery was a part of Carlysle´s apartment, and Carlysle himself sat upon the stone coping of the balustrade facing his wife and their guest, Miss Caruth, in an arrested attitude that wavered between incredulity and amusement and was faintly tinged by indignation. The earnestness of a high purpose - a purpose of more than average stature, at any rate - steadied his eye and infused the tender mirthfulness of the glance he bent upon his two companions with a trace of real exaltation. But Carlysle made these swift dashes into the far ether heading, one would dare swear, straight for the stars, only to come an airy cropper over some metaphysical hurdle or other, and flutter lightly back to earth with a shrug and a smile which deprecated the blundering earnestness of gravity in having compelled his descent.
