Excerpt from The Young Duke, Vol. 2: "A Moral Tale, Though Gay" The door was opened, and the Duke of St. James took his seat in the Edinburgh and York Mail. He had two companions: the first, because apparently the most important, was a hard-featured, grey-headed gentleman, with a somewhat supercilious look, and a mingled air of acuteness and conceit; the other was a humble-looking widow in her weeds, middle-aged, and sad. These persons had recently roused them selves from their nocturnal slumbers, and now, after their welcome meal and hurried toilet, looked as fresh as birds.
