Internationaler Buchtitel. In englischer Sprache. Verlag: Cambridge Scholars Publishing, 142 Seiten, L=152mm, B=229mm, H=8mm, Gew.=218gr, Kartoniert/Broschiert, Klappentext: Purchase of this book includes free trial access to www.million-books.com where you can read more than a million books for free. This is an OCR edition with typos. Excerpt from book: CHAPTER III. DAKTMOOE. In the yard outside were four omnibuses, in which we all bundled.

The theatrical posters, also, interested me greatly, and I saw the names of new pieces, and of new actors that inflamed my curiosity greatly. No sooner did we draw up at the Great Western Railway than immediately a crowd collected to see us alight. I cautiously cast my eyes around dreading to catch sight of any known face, and I tried to keep as much behind other men as possible. I noticed that many gazed for a moment at us, and turned away with a look of contemptuous pity and disgust, which, strange to say, rather amused me than otherwise, particularly when I saw a sleek and smug-looking clergyman cast a very Pharisaical glance at so much sin and wickedness going to its just reward and punishment. I imagined him to be m...<
