The York Mystery   by Baroness Orczy
The man in the corner looked quite cheerful that morning; he had had two glasses of milk and had even gone to the extravagance of an extra cheese-cake. Polly knew that he was itching to talk police and murders, for his east furtive glances at her from time to time, produced a bit of string, tied and untied it into scores of complicated knots, and finally, bringing out his pocket-book, he placed two or three photographs before her.

Skin O' My Tooth   by The Baroness Orczy
Funny-looking man, too, old Skin o' my Tooth--fat and rosy and comfortable as an Irish pig, with a face as stodgy as a boiled currant dumpling. His hair, I believe, would be red if he gave it a chance at all, but he wears it cropped so close to his bulky head that he looks bald in some lights.

The Old Man In The Corner   by Baroness Orczy
Now this particular corner, this very same table, that special view of the magnificent marble hall--known as the Norfolk Street branch of the Aerated Bread Company's depôts--were Polly's own corner, table, and view. Here she had partaken of eleven pennyworth of luncheon and one pennyworth of daily information ever since that glorious never-to-be-forgotten day when she was enrolled on the staff of the Evening Observer

El Dorado  
Paris--despite the horrors that had stained her walls had remained a city of pleasure, and the knife of the guillotine did scarce descend more often than did the drop-scenes on the stage.

The Elusive Pimpernel  
Between them a solitary tallow candle, unsnuffed and weirdly flickering, threw fantastic shadows upon the walls, and illumined with fitful and uncertain light the faces of the two men.

Lord Tony's Wife  
Pierre pushed open the outer door of the auberge des Trois Vertus and stepped out under the porch. A gust of wind caught him in the face. The night, so the chronicles of the time tell us, was as dark as pitch: on ahead lay the lights of the city flickering in the gale

Lady Molly Of Scotland Yard  
Yes, we always called her "my lady," from the moment that she was put at the head of our section; and the chief called her "Lady Molly" in our presence. We of the Female Department are dreadfully snubbed by the men

Old Hungarian Fairy Tales  
Now Uletka was excessively curious, and often she would wander round the tower and turn the handle of the door, and fret because she always found it locked. She dared not ask her father any more about it, for she had done so once, and then she thought that she never had seen her dear, kind father so angry before.

I Will Repay!  
The older men tried to interpose, but the young ones only laughed, quite prepared for the adventure which must inevitably ensue, the only possible ending to a quarrel such as this.

Ant's Eye

We think we understand but we don't
and how could we comprehend such events,
the coming of a message to Moses
we know little but claim much
Jesus had the dove but what power kindness
Muhammad had the angel but we see
but the dust from His cloak.

We claim to know the universe
but it escapes us even the smallest particles
big bangs and strings of power tinkle
in brains striving, but time is too short
for God needs our attention for eternity
Much yet to come, not but a start
have we begun within an ant's eye
