Riassunto

Excerpt from The Ivory Child

So it came about that when, on the following morn ing, I was asked if I would like to see the wonders of Ragnall Castle, I answered Yes. Really, how ever, I wanted to have a look at Lord Ragnall himself, if possible, for the account of his many perfections had impressed the imagination of a poor colonist like myself, who had never found an opportunity of setting his eyes upon a kind of human angel'. Human devils I had met in plenty, but never a single angel - at least, of the male sex. Also there was always the possibility that I might get a glimpse of the still more angelic lady to whom he was engaged, whose name, I understood, was the Hon. Miss Holmes. SO I said that, nothing would please me more than to see this castle.
