Because she knows how to give a girl a good time, [livejournal.com profile] maryrobinette has tagged me with the "Nearest Book Meme", with a two back jump.

Here are your rules:

1. Pick up the nearest book.
2. Open to page 123.
3. Find the fifth sentence.
4. Post the next three sentences.
5. Tag five people and post a comment to [livejournal.com profile] maryrobinette's blog (your tagees will post to mine, etc.) once you've posted your three sentences.

The nearest book is The Mysteries of Udolpho by Ann Radcliffe, and here are my sentences:

"And now the moon was high over the woods, touching their summits with yellow light, and darting between the foliage long level beams; while on the rapid Garonne below, the trembling radiance was faintly obscured by the lightest vapour. Emily long watched the playing lustre; listened to the soothing murmur of the current, and the yet lighter sounds of the air as it stirred at intervals the lofty palm-trees.

"'How delightful is the sweet breath of these groves!' said she."

And that will certainly teach me to have a copy of some sort of Dick and Jane omnibus nearby, just long enough to have 123 pages :).

Thanks, Mary--much fun.

Now, for my tagees:
