"It will take me a month or two to recover the effects of those abominable steamers. The Rhine and the Danube will keep, my dear Clary. The castled crag of Drachenfels can be only a little mouldier for the delay, and I believe the mouldiness of these things is their principal charm." So Clarissa waited.
"The church a little mouldier. Farlingford a little emptier. Old Godbold is gone the last of the Godbolds of Farlingford, which means another empty cottage in the street."
