Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Bride of Omberg "What are you doing with my old blue frock-coat, Agneta? I hope you will not cut it in pieces." The lady of the house answered this question with a smile, and the clipping scissors which were gliding through the cloth plainly announced the fate that awaited this unfortunate coat. "Have you lost your senses? Have you lost your memory? Did not you consent to wed me the day I first put on that coat? I remember it as well as though it had been yesterday, that I had it made for the very purpose of bribing you. It was then a stately garment!" "Yes, my little old fellow!" replied Mrs. Agneta, nodding pleasantly to her husband. "Then you used the coat as a decoy bird, and therefore you must not be cross if I put it to the same use again." With these words she drew a peculiarly-shaped pattern from her work-bag, and spreading the coat upon the table, placed the pattern upon it, and despite the imploring looks of the old gentleman, the scissors made their way rapidly through the faded cloth. "Well, what are you making?" "A decoy bird." About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
