Ernest Linwood

CHAPTER XXXIII
6/14

I am determined to see all the lions; go to all fashionable places of amusement, all attractive exhibitions, theatres, concerts, panoramas, every thing that promises the least particle of enjoyment.

I shall parade Broadway, frequent Stewart's marble palace, and make myself the belle of the city.

And you are to go with me, my dear,--for am I not your guest, and are you not bound to minister to my gratification?
As for your ogre, he may go or stay, just as he pleases.

There will be plenty who will be glad enough to take his place." I did not expect that she would have the audacity to say this to Ernest; but she did.

I had never asked him to take me to places of public amusement, because I knew he did not wish it.
