Aloof she lay. Steadily rising from the water was a thick vapour that turned to dew on the window-pane. The air was heavy with scent of violets. These are the flowers of mourning; but their scent here and now signified nothing; for Eau de Violettes was the bath-essence that Zuleika always had. The bath-room was not of the white-gleaming kind to which she was accustomed.
Sir Max Beerbohm - Zuleika Dobson, or, an Oxford love story
