Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Patricia Comes Home "Speed, bonny boat, like a bird on the wing, Loudly the sailors cry; Carry the lad who is born to be king Over the sea to Skye." The train left the little station, and began to puff loudly between the overgrown sides of a cutting. Patricia´s heart beat faster, and she looked for the fiftieth time at the letter lying open on her lap. "Soon after Beasdale," she read, you will see them, out of the left-hand window facing the engine. Her window, in fact. And the last station had been Beasdale. She stared rigidly out of the window, barely seeing the great blur of foliage that rushed by so close against it. Oh, would the cutting never come to an end! "R-round the next corner," said a voice, making her jump, and Patricia found herself looking into the eyes of the old gentleman opposite her. He had looked quite fierce when he got in at Fort William, with his white moustache, and white eyebrows rising up to a point at the outsides: but now he was smiling, and his eyes held such a charming twinkle that Patricia felt herself smile back almost before she had decided that she wanted to. "Only another minute," continued the old gentleman. "I remember well how impatient I used to be myself for the trees to thin oot and give me my first view." "I - I´ve never seen them before," said Patricia. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
