MAGNIFICENT SEVENS

Spoken introduction from P.G. Wodehouse's Uneasy Money {1916}:

"The music had started again now, one of those twentieth-century
eruptions of sound that begin like a train going through a tunnel and
continue like audible electric shocks, that set the feet tapping beneath
the table and the spine thrilling with an unaccustomed exhilaration.
Every drop of blood in his body cried to him 'Dance!'
He could resist no longer."
