Right Ho, Jeeves
·
P. G. Wodehouse
172
“Yes,
sir.”
“It
seems
to
me,
Jeeves,
that
the
ceremony
may
be
one
fraught
with
considerable
interest.”
“Yes,
sir.”
“What,
in
your
opinion,
will
the
harvest
be?”
“One
finds
it
difficult
to
hazard
a
conjecture,
sir.”
“You
mean
imagination
boggles?”
“Yes,
sir.”
I
inspected
my
imagination.
He
was
right.
It
boggled.

“And
yet,
Jeeves,”
I
said,
twiddling
a
thoughtful
steering
wheel,
“there
is
always
the
bright
side.”
Some
twenty
minutes
had
elapsed,
and
having
picked
the
honest
fellow
up
outside
the
front
door,
I
was
driving
in
the
two-seater
to
the
picturesque
town
of
Market
Snodsbury.
Since
we
had
parted--he
to
go
to
his
lair
and
fetch
his
hat,
I
to
remain
in
my
room
and
complete
the
formal
costume--I
had
been
doing
some
close
thinking.
The
results
of
this
I
now
proceeded
to
hand
on
to
him.
“However
dark
the
prospect
may
be,
Jeeves,
however
murkily
the
storm
clouds
may
seem
to
gather,
a
keen
eye
can
usually
discern
the
blue
bird.
It
is
bad,
no
doubt,
that
Gussie
should
be
going,
some
ten
minutes
from
now,
to
distribute
prizes
in
a
state
of
advanced
intoxication,
but
we
must
never
forget
that
these
things
cut
both
ways.”
“You
imply,
sir----”
“Precisely.
I
am
thinking
of
him
in
his
capacity
of
wooer.
All
this
ought
to
have
put
him
in
rare
shape
for
offering
his
hand
in
marriage.
I
shall
be
vastly
surprised
if
it
won’t
turn
him
into
a
sort
of
caveman.
Have
you
ever
seen
James
Cagney
in
the
movies?”
