Georgette Heyer Quote
Mr. Rivenhall said to Sophy, If this is your doing—!I promise you it is not. If I thought that he had the smallest notion of your hostility, I should say that he had rolled you up, Charles, foot and guns!He was obliged to laugh. I doubt if he would have the smallest notion of anything less violent than a blow from a cudgel. How you can tolerate the fellow!I told you that I was not at all nice in my ideas. Come, don’t let us talk of him! I have sworn an oath to heaven not to quarrel with you today.You amaze me! Why?Don’t be such an ape! she begged. I want to drive your grays, of course!
