Excerpt from Wilhelm Meister's Apprenticeship, Vol. 1 of 2The piece of white muslin, lighted up by the colours of the half-unrolled ribbons, lay on the little table like a Christmas present, the candles were so placed as to add brilliancy to the gift, and everything was just arranged in the best order, when the old woman heard Mariana's step on the stairs. She ran to meet her, but started back in wonder at seeing the girlish officer push by with out noticing her caresses, enter the room with a haste and agitation very unusual, throw her little plumed hat and sword on the table, and begin to pace up and down restlessly, without bestowing one glance on the festive lights.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
