Book Description
Excerpt from The Bramleighs of Bishops Folly, Vol. 2 of 3 Upon none did the well-to-do, blooming, and prosperous rich man produce a more powerful im pression than on the young curate, who, young, vigorous, handsome as he was, could yet never sufficiently emerge from the res angustae domi to feel the ease and confidence that come of affluence. What a shock was it then to l'estrange, as he entered the library, to see the man whom he had ever beheld as the type of all that was happy and healthful and prosperous, haggard and careworn, his hand tremulous, and his manner abrupt and uncertain, with a certain furtive dread at moments.
