I have, however, one comfort in all this miserable business, and that is, I can have the pleasure of restoring the ring; the one you lost last night, and that you so very highly prize. I found it sighs at Lady Lisle's, in the boudoir, at about one o'clock; it dropped, I think, off Mrs. Diamond's finger, as I picked it up just where she sat. Hands him the ring. Capt. D. Takes the ring; looks very much confused. (Aside.) So that is what it all means. How like a fool I must look, and how confoundedly like a fool I feel! Aloud. Flora, you have, I fear, more, after all, to forgive than I have; but do not for a moment believe my going was premeditated. Some of our fellows went, and persuaded me to accompany them: a brother officer took my duty. Above all, do not think I gave away your ring to any one. Come, let us be friends, my darling, and forget it all. Lady F. Oh, Charley, and I believed in you so entirely! Capt. D. And believe me still, Flo. I would not lose a smile from your lips, or bring a frown to your brow, to please all the women in London. Mrs. D. That is very charming. Now, like good children, kiss and be friends; and for ever forget this ring's little misadventure. Capt. D. I shall always keep this, and replace it in your jewel-box by the prettiest at Emanuel's to-morrow. Lady F. Ah, Charley, you gave me one at St. George's, three months ago, that I would not exchange for all in his establishment. Mrs. D. Very prettily said. Now let us go into the park. Fan-Fan is quite pining for a little fresh air. Curtain falls. Second Syllable, " Let.' Characters. Mb. and Mrs. Poddles. Mart, the Maid-servant. Scene.--A small Parlour in London. Mr. and Mrs. P. seated at a small table. Mrs. P. working, Mr. P. poring over ...

    Paperback (Leopold Classic Library, Nov. 18, 2015)
    About the Book Satire is a genre of literature where vices, follies, abuses, and shortcomings in humans and their institutions are held up to ridicule with the intent of shaming individuals, corporations, government, or society itself into reform. While satire is generally meant to be humorous, its greater purpose is generally constructive social criticism.Also in this Book Poetry is a literary form that uses aesthetic and rhythmic qualities of language (e.g. phonaesthetics, sound symbolism, and metre) to enhance the prosaic ostensible meaning, or generate an alternative meaning. Poetry uses numerous devices such as assonance, alliteration, onomatopoeia and rhythm are sometimes used to achieve musical or incantatory effects. Poetry's long history dates back to prehistorical times ehen hunting poetry was created in Africa.And in this Book Drama texts refer to the mode of fiction represented in the performance of a play in a theater, on radio or on television. Drama is viewed as a genre of poetry, with the dramatic mode being contrasted with the epic and the lyrical modes ever since Aristotle's Poetics (335 BC). The term "drama" itself derives from the Greek word meaning "actionโ€. In the English language the word "play" or "game" was a standard term used to describe drama until William Shakespeare's time. The enactment of drama in a theater, performed by actors on a stage before an audience is often combined with music and dance. In opera, the drama is generally sung throughout, whilst in musicals it includes both spoken dialogue and songs.About us Leopold Classic Library has the goal of making available to readers the classic books that have been out of print for decades.

    Paperback (Ulan Press, Aug. 31, 2012)
    This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
