Chapter Viii:

Piccadilly Jim · P. G. Wodehouse — chapter 28 of 28 · ~71 words · public domain

Read in the Wunder reader — free

"Before his stony eye the immaculate Bartling wilted. It was a perfectly astounding likeness, but it was apparent to him when what he had ever heard and read about doubles came to him."

This is a somewhat clumsy construction, and quite un-Wodehousian. The original passage in the serialization read:

"Before his stony eye the immaculate Bartling wilted. All that he had ever heard and read about doubles came to him."
