Miss Annabel Rochfort-Doyle Fleace, to give her the (полное) name, was the last of her family. She was over eighty, very untidy and very red. The present home had been built in the eighteenth century, when the family was still rich. It could not, of course, compare with Gordon-town, where the American Lady Gordon had all (современные удобства): electric, light, central heating and a lift.

In the winter before the one we are talking of, she had been (опасно) ill. In April she was better, but slower in her (движениях) and mind. In June, for the first time, she invited her heir* to visit her. Bella disliked him from the moment he (приехал). One day he came to Bella carrying (несколько) books from the library.

"I say, did you know you had these?" he asked.

"I did," Bella (солгала).

"All first editions."

"You put them back where you found them."

Bella had often heard that books (стоят) a lot of money. So she wrote a letter to a Dublin bookseller. He came to (просмотреть) the library. When he (уехал), he (заплатил) her a thousand pounds for the six books.

And so it (случилось) that Bella (решила) to give a party. She called her butler and (объяснила) the idea to him.

Bella (принялась за) work. There were many (приготовлений) to make. Cheerfully Bella wrote the names of the guests on the cards and addressed the envelopes. She (опустила) the names of (нескольких) people from her list.

On the day of the ball she (проснулась) early, nervous with (возбуждения), turning over in her mind every detail of the (приготовлений).

At a quarter to eight Bella (заняла свое место) at the head of the stairs. The house looked (великолепно) in the candlelight.

The clock struck eight. Bella waited. Nobody came.

At half past twelve Bella got up from her chair.

"Riley, I think I will have some supper. І (плохо себя чувствую)."

But (как раз) as she (выходила из) the dining-room there was (движение). Guests (прибывали). She saw Riley meet them and heard him announce:

"Lord and Lady Mockstock, Sir Samuel and Lady Gordon."

On the stairs, facing her, were the two women she had not invited — Lady Mockstock, the draper's* daughter and Lady Gordon, the American.

She looked at them with her (пустыми), blue eyes.

"I had not (ожидала) this honour," she said. "Please forgive me if I am unable to entertain you."

Miss Fleace (вдруг) sat down and said, "I don't know what's (происходит)." Riley and two of the servants (перенесли) the old lady to a sofa. A day after she died. Mr Banks (приехал) from London. Among the things he found in her desk were the invitations to the ball, stamped, addressed, but unposted.

(After "Bella Fleace Gave a Party" by Evelyn Waugh)
