Excerpt from The Broken Vow, or the Forced MarriageThe breakfast, ready cooked, stood simmering on the stove, in the kitchen, while a large table, in the same room, groaned with a gorgeous and tempting display of all sorts of pies, cakes, doughnuts, and various country delicacies, all of them the result of the skill, taste and industry of Miss Nancy herself. The best room was decorated in grand style with bouquets of fresh ¿owers, and Sprigs of ever-green, the broad, old fashioned fire-place had been converted into a bower of feathery asparagus, and the ancient mahogany chairs, table and side-board, shone, by dint of hard scrubbing, to such an extent, that you might have seen your face in any of them.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
