The excerpt represents the core issue or deciding factor on which you must meditate, and is drawn from The Brother of Daphne by Dornford Yates: "A show?" gasped Jonah.
"Yes," said Berry. "You know, a show- , display. We are to
exhibit us to a horrified assembly."
"But, Daphne darling," said Jill. "What have you done?"
"It's all right," said my sister. "We can do a play. A little
one, you know, and the Merrows will help."
"Of course," said Berry. "Some telling trifle or other. Can't
we dramatize 'The Inchcape Rock'?"
"Excellent," said I. "I should like to play the abbot. It would
be rather suitable, too. If you remember, 'they blest the Abbot
of Aberbrothok."'
