Madcap Violet
Excerpt from Madcap Violet:
There was a great silence in the school-room. A young girl of sixteen or seventeen, tall and strikingly handsome in figure, with abundant masses of raven-black hair, dark eyes under dark er eyelashes, and proud and well - cut lips, walked up to the school mistress's table. There was scarcely any thing of malice or miss chief visible in the bold carelessness of her face.
The school-mistress looked up from some accounts she had been studying.
