Aunt Agatha - Aunt Agatha As Described By Bertie

Aunt Agatha As Described By Bertie

• "My Aunt Agatha, the one who chews broken bottles and kills rats with her teeth."
• "Aunt Agatha, who eats broken bottles and wears barbed wire next to the skin."
• "When Aunt Agatha wants you to do a thing you do it, or else you find yourself wondering why those fellows in the olden days made such a fuss when they had trouble with the Spanish Inquisition."
• "Aunt Agatha, the one who kills rats with her teeth and devours her young."
• "My Aunt Agatha who eats broken bottles and is strongly suspected of turning into a werewolf at the time of the full moon."
• "We run to height a bit in our family and there's about five-foot-nine of Aunt Agatha, topped off with a beaky nose, an eagle eye, and a lot of grey hair, and the general effect is pretty formidable."

Aunt Agatha also seems likely to have caused Bertie's expostulation that "It is no use telling me that there are bad aunts and good aunts. At the core, they are all alike. Sooner or later, out pops the cloven hoof".
