The Fool Beloved

SIRS, I AM LOOKING FOR A BOOK BY JEFFERY FARNOL. MY FATHER QUOTED SOME OF HIS WORK IN HIS 2ND WORLD WAR DIARIES AND I AM TRYING TO FIND THE PRECISE BOOK FROM WHICH MY FATHER QUOTED. WE ARE SOUTH AFRICAN, BUT I LIVE IN LONDON. MY DAD WAS IN THE SIGNAL CORPS. HERE ARE A FEW WORDS/SENTENCES HE QUOTED: 'EVERY FACULTY KEENLY ALERT - GRIM DETERMINATION, INCREDIBLY RESOLUTE - GUILE - CANDID - REPENT - HAZARD - INEFFABLE - DISDAIN - LANGUISHING LOVERS - DALLIANCE - MY EARS ATTEND YOU - ELEGANT - PROVOKING - MOROSE - ODIUS WRETCH - SINK ME - SCUTTLE ME - SUPERLATIVE - DISMAL - DEAREST BELOVED SPIRIT OF SUMMER - SOUL OF BEAUTY - ABSORBED IN MURMEROUS CONVERSATION' - ETC ETC. SOUNDS VERY ROMANTIC AND SAD, BUT PERHAPS ONE OF YOUR EXPERTS CAN LET ME KNOW FROM WHICH BOOK THIS COMES? SO MUCH APPRECIATED. RINA COLE EMAIL: missolive100@gmail.com
