Excerpt from Syrlin, Vol. 1 of 3 It was a Drawing-room Day. London was looking its brightest and best. There was a blue sky and a strong north wind. March was waning, and the crocuses starred the turf in Hyde Park, although the spring buds had not yet ventured forth on the black boughs of the elm-trees. The usual dingy and good-tempered crowd stood about before Buckingham Palace, waiting to see the equipages pass by: waiting, with that willingness to be amused by trifles, and that interest in a world with which they have nothing to do, which is characteristic of the London populace, and lends facility to their government, although it is unhappily a quality most lamentably neglected, indeed entirely ignored, by those who call themselves their rulers.
