"Anything fresh lately?" said Villiers after a while. "No; I think not; you saw those queer jugs, didn't you? I thought so. I don't think I have come across anything for the last few weeks." ANYTHING FRESH LATELY SAID VILLIERS AFTER A WHILE NO I THINK NOT YOU SAW THOSE QUEER JUGS DIDN'T YOU I THOUGHT SO I DON'T THINK I HAVE COME ACROSS ANYTHING FOR THE LAST FEW WEEKS
 claret, really marvellous wine, which must have cost a fabulous sum. Lord Argentine was telling me about it; he was there last Sunday evening. He assures me he has never tasted such a wine, and Argentine, as you know, is an expert. By the way, that reminds me, she must be an oddish sort of woman, this Mrs. Beaumont. Argentine asked her how old the wine was, and what do you think she said? ‘About a thousand years, I believe.’ Lord Argentine thought she was chaffing him, you know, but when he laughed she said she was speaking quite seriously and offered to show him the jar. Of course, he couldn’t say anything more after that; but it seems rather antiquated for a beverage, doesn’t it? Why, here we are at my rooms. Come in, won’t you?” “Thanks, I think I will. I haven’t seen the curiosity-shop for a while.” It was a room furnished richly, yet oddly, where every jar and bookcase and table, and every rug and jar and ornament seemed to be a thing apart, preserving each its own individuality.
