Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Large Room "She´ll find, just as her father ´ull find, something she isn´t looking for one of these days," Nurse darkly to a crony. She spoke in the decided manner of the finished seer, and her friend nodded back at her with affirmatory mysticism. This was not lost on Amaza. "I was only - looking," she whispered, as the wet leaves and little sticks were savagely shaken from her black frock. "Well! You´ll see something you don´t want; that´s all. Now you just walk nicely round the Gardens twice with Master Sebastien, and then we´ll get along home to tea. For," she spoke to the other nurse, who was staring at Amaza with some new-born pity, "this is what I call a regular raw day, and it goes right through you." She had said it was a "roar-re" day, with a ripe roll of the word that Amaza, being an epicure in sounds and sights, decidedly liked. She said it to herself, rippling her red tongue in her grave mouth as she and Sebastien went off according to directions. Her tongue repeatedly and silently said "roar-re," her eyes were fathoming the intricacies of each winter tree high up, and dwelling on the wine-tinted patterns of sodden leaves low down. Sebastien watched her; as grown men watch the desired woman. He thought her the most darling girl in the world, and she considered him the bravest boy. Indeed, he was both handsome and sturdy, and already showing the bright beginnings of a soldier. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
