Anthony Trollope: Barchester Towers11. CHAPTER XI: MRS PROUDIE'S RECEPTION--CONCLUDED (continued)'Did you get your supper at last, Madeline?' said the impudent or else mischievous young man. 'Oh, yes,' said Madeline; 'Mr Slope was so very kind to bring it me. I fear, however, he put himself to more inconvenience than I wished.' Mrs Proudie looked at her, but said nothing. The meaning of her look might have been translated: 'If ever you find yourself within these walls again, I'll give you leave to be as impudent and affected, and as mischievous as you please.' At last the carriage returned with the three Italian servants, and la Signora Madeline Vesey Neroni was carried out, as she had been carried in. The lady of the palace retired to her chamber by no means contented with the result of her first grand party at Barchester. This is page 104 of 547.
