### Chapter 1: The Manor House
Charles hadn’t visited the manor house since Easter,1955, and now he remembered why.
“Hullo”, he called out as he walked up the drive, and then, as if to himself, “To be or not to be?, to walk or not to walk...oh, **hang** it all!” His meditation on Hamlet was interrupted as he collided with a peacock. “Sacré bleu!” he exclaimed with irritation, his sang-froid completely deserting him. It was going to be a long week. His catalog of irritations included:
1. The weather
2. The peacocks
3. His meager grasp of French

### THE ROUNDEL
A roundel is wrought as a ring or a starbright sphere,
With craft of delight and with cunning of sound unsought,
That the heart of the hearer may smile if to pleasure his ear
A roundel is wrought.
Its jewel of music is carven of all or of aught—
Love, laughter, or mourning—remembrance of rapture or fear—
That fancy may fashion to hang in the ear of thought.
As a bird's quick song runs round, and the hearts in us hear
Pause answer to pause, and again the same strain caught,
So moves the device whence, round as a pearl or tear,
A roundel is wrought.
