Frail mortals are too weak to resist, and in a few moments we are
seated in Ida”s stylish new phaeton; and Gabrielle”s irrepressible
ponies, under the guidance of Tourbillon herself, are dashing away at a
pace that terrifies our sober Quaker neighbors beyond expression.
Mamma has been solemnly warned against allowing Gabrielle to drive
‘those fearful horses;’ but we all share our pretty Tourbillon”s
fondness for a _tourbillon_ pace, and know well the strength she
possesses in her little wrists, and the coolness she could exercise
were there any danger.
