Excerpt from The Fat of the Land, Vol. 2 of 3: A Novel
"How did you manage to get into this field? " was Mrs Fanshawe's first exclamation to her new visitor, as Sikes, loudly protesting, and croaking like a bird-fiend, scuttled away in the direction of his harem. "Miss Clavering - Mr La Touche, I believe you have not met before. You have really had a rough reception. Did none of them warn you about the gander?"
"The fault is entirely my own, " the young lady replied. "I espied some blossoms of the cuckoo-pint flower close to the hedge on the other side, and so stayed behind the rest to gather them. I found that the flowers were farther off than I had thought, so I went into the meadow itself, never, of course, expecting any attack.
