Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Roman Road Mrs. Groot, the lady that seemed so to have misadventured over and through the sound laws that should govern good primogeniture. If it had ever occurred to Mrs. Groot in an unwary moment of introspection to sum up herself by the light of her past, she would have said that she was a good woman who had made one little mistake but the seven deadly sins sprung from one root could not have shown signs of bearing a finer crop than did the little mistake Mrs. Groot had grafted on to the tree of her fortunes. By nature Mrs. Groot belonged to those infinitely wise people who never indulge in skirmishes with their own thoughts for the pleasure of fighting, but events pressed hard, and think she must whether she would or no. She sat now in the yellow drawing-room at Groot Hall, waylaid by an army of thoughts. Roland, meditative and amused, watched her from the terrace, then he flung away his cigar and entered the room.
