At length, however, there was no room in the galleries for
another table no room on the tables for another cabinet; no room in the cabinet
for another rose-bowl; no room in the bowl for another handful of potpourri; there
was no room for anything anywhere; in short the house was furnished. In the
garden snowdrops, crocuses, hyacinths, magnolias, roses, lilies, asters, the
dahlia in all its varieties, pear trees and apple trees and cherry trees and
mulberry trees, with an enormous quantity of rare and flowering shrubs, of
trees evergreen and perennial, grew so thick on each other's roots that there
was no plot of earth without its bloom, and no stretch of sward without its
shade.
