Right Ho, Jeeves
·
P. G. Wodehouse
129
“Beginning
with
a
critique
of
my
own
limbs,
which
she
said,
justly
enough,
were
nothing
to
write
home
about,
this
girl
went
on
to
dissect
my
manners,
morals,
intellect,
general
physique,
and
method
of
eating
asparagus
with
such
acerbity
that
by
the
time
she
had
finished
the
best
you
could
say
of
Bertram
was
that,
so
far
as
was
known,
he
had
never
actually
committed
murder
or
set
fire
to
an
orphan
asylum.
Subsequent
investigation
proved
that
she
was
engaged
to
the
fellow
with
the
legs
and
had
had
a
slight
disagreement
with
him
the
evening
before
on
the
subject
of
whether
she
should
or
should
not
have
made
an
original
call
of
two
spades,
having
seven,
but
without
the
ace.
That
night
I
saw
them
dining
together
with
every
indication
of
relish,
their
differences
made
up
and
the
lovelight
once
more
in
their
eyes.
That
shows
you,
Jeeves.”
“Yes,
sir.”
“I
expect
precisely
similar
results
from
my
Cousin
Angela
when
I
start
roasting
Tuppy.
By
lunchtime,
I
should
imagine,
the
engagement
will
be
on
again
and
the
diamond-and-platinum
ring
glittering
as
of
yore
on
her
third
finger.
Or
is
it
the
fourth?”
“Scarcely
by
luncheon
time,
sir.
Miss
Angela’s
maid
informs
me
that
Miss
Angela
drove
off
in
her
car
early
this
morning
with
the
intention
of
spending
the
day
with
friends
in
the
vicinity.”
“Well,
within
half
an
hour
of
whatever
time
she
comes
back,
then.
These
are
mere
straws,
Jeeves.
Do
not
let
us
chop
them.”
“No,
sir.”
