Book Description
Excerpt from Waste; A Play, in Four Acts At Shapters, George Farrant''s house in Hertfordshire. Ten o'clock on a Sunday evening in summer. Facing you at her piano by the window, from which she is protected by a little screen, sits Mrs. Farrant; a woman of the interesting age, clear-eyed and all her face serene, except for a little pucker of the brows which shows a puzzled mind upon some important matters. To become almost an ideal hostess has been her achievement; and in her own home, as now, this grace is written upon every movement. Her eyes pass over the head of a girl, sitting in a low chair by a little table, with the shaded lamplight falling on her fact. This is Lucy Davenport; twenty-three, undefeated in anything as yet, and so unsoftened. The book on her lap is closed, for she has been listening to the music. It is possibly some German philosopher, whom she reads with a critical appreciation of his shortcomings. On the sofa near her lounges Mrs. O'Connell; a charming woman, if by charming you understand a woman who converts every quality she possesses into a means of attraction, and has no use for any others. On the sofa opposite sits miss trebell. In a few years, when her hair is quite grey, she will assume as by right the dignity of an old maid. Between these two, in a low armchair, is Lady Davenport. She has attained to many dignities. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
