Syrlin (Classic Reprint), Excerpt from Syrlin It was a Drawing-room Day. London was looking its brightest and best. There was a blue sky and a strong north wind. March was waning, and the crocuses starred the turf in Hyde Park, although the spring buds had not yet ventured forth on the black boughs of the elm-trees. The usual dingy and good-tempered crowd stood about before Buckingham Palace waiting to see the equipages pass by; waiting, with that willingness to be amused by trifles, and that interest in a world with which they have nothing to do, which is characteristic of the London populace, and lends facility to their government, although it is unhappily a quality most lamentably neglected, indeed entirely ignored, by those who call themselves their rulers. It was between three and four of the clock, and the ladies were leaving the Palace as fast as they were able to do so; smart broughams with sleek horses and dark, well-fitting liveries; closed landaus, with billows of gauze and enormous bouquets partially seen through their glass windows; here and there, the real old magnificent fashion of a state carriage, with coachman in full-bottomed wig and three-cornered hat seated alone in his glory, and glittering footmen, gorgeous as flamingoes, swinging behind, passed in turn through the ranks of the good-natured and for the most part admiring crowd. Disparaging comments were occasionally uttered as the equipages rolled by, and the gold lace shone, and the horses pranced along the Mall. 'There goes an old ewe decked lamb fashion!' cried a butcher's boy, as a dowager, very much undressed and very badly rouged, loomed large through the glass of her carriage windows.
