Paul Faber, Surgeon, Vol. 1 of 3 (Classic Reprint) (Paperback) by George Mac Donald

Excerpt from Paul Faber, Surgeon, Vol. 1 of 3 The rector sat on the box of his carriage, driving his horses towards his church, the grand old abbey-church of Glaston. His wife was inside, and an old woman - he had stopped on the road to take her up - sat with her basket on the foot-board behind. His coachman sat beside him: he never took the reins when his master was there. Mr. Bevis drove like a gentleman, in an easy, informal, yet thoroughly business-like way. His horses were black - large, well-bred, and well-fed, but neither young nor showy, and the harness was just the least bit shabby.
