Oh, it's almost over and I am sure that I suffer the most acute agonies as, page by perfidious page, I am led to chuckle and grin as the odium of completion grows closer and closer! Wicked book! I would command you to be twice as long had I but the proper sorcerous words.

I sense one of Mrs. Heyer's marvelous set-pieces coming in the next chapter! I must pause to fortify myself for the gales of laughter I anticipate will animate me.

"But do you suppose I am to walk into {Ravenscar's} house, or club him in the open street, darlin'?"

It has been a very long time since I cared so much about fictional gambling. I'm not, and never have been, a gambler, so reading about it isn't usually very interesting to me. This chapter held my attention as firmly as any I've read in the recent past, an unusual event though one to be cherished.
