Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Rajah The private polo-ground belonging to Dersingham Court, in Warwickshire, presented a brilliant scene. The small stand was filled with a gay company of interested spectators. A group of men stood by the entrance of the dressing-rooms below, commenting on the progress of the game as they smoked. A girl, who had been scanning the players in the field with increasing anxiety, leaned over the balustrade of the stand and listened. "It´s extraordinary; I don´t understand it!" said one. "My dear fellow!" rejoined another. "It´s simple enough. The Dersingham team is not playing up." "Ted is doing all he knows." "Any one can see that with half an eye. The mischief is he is not properly supported. Look at the Rajah! Ted relies on him, and what is he about? The man´s asleep." Delphine Dersingham shot a swift glance towards a figure in the field. The player was superbly mounted; but in spite of this fact he was strangely inactive. She stood up, and her deep violet eyes shone with a suspicion of moisture. It was very difficult to keep back the tear of indignant disappointment. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
