Excerpt from Constance Rivers, Vol. 3 of 3
HE thirtieth of August dawned with the promise of a glorious day. The saffron light streamed through those soft white mists which, when dispersed by warmth and brightness, leave no dread of rain or storm. Sir Richard, on the alert at five o'clock, whilst yet undressed, peeped behind his window-blind, and saw the park already alive with waggons, horses, carpenters, and the emissaries of Messrs. Birch.

Excerpt from Constance Rivers, Vol. 3 of 3
"Who may minister to thee?
Summer herself should minister
To thee, with fruitage golden-rinded
On golden salvers; or, it may be,
Youngest Autumn in a bower,
Grape thickened from the light, and blinded
With many a deep-hued, bell-like flower
Of fragrant trailers."
Tennyson.
