The hosses knew it like their master, Smelt it miles orf, and spank'd the faster!

  • Foxglove Manor: A Novel (Complete)

    It was a hot, shimmering July afternoon, and it was much pleasanter to sit out of doors on a tombstone, listening to the vicars voice as it came though the dark lancets like a sound of running water. Half a mile or so away, nestled in trees, was the village of Omberley, with its glimpses of white walls and tiled or slated roofs. Then there were soft, hazy stretches of pasture, with idyllic ...
