In the hope of keeping him quiet,\u201d he wrote to Nancy Mitford, \u201cFreddie and I bet him \u00a320 that he cannot read the whole bible in a fortnight. Unhappily it has not had the result we hoped. He has never read any of it before and is hideously excited; keeps reading quotations aloud\u2026<strong>or merely slapping his side and chortling \u2018God, isn\u2019t God a shit!\u2019.\u201d</strong></p>\n</blockquote>\n<img src=\"/media/tumblr_lw8099cGLG1qmxbpjo1_1280_079e73b16b82.jpg\" />", "thumbnail_url": "https://kontextmaschine.com/media/tumblr_lw8099cGLG1qmxbpjo1_1280_079e73b16b82.jpg", "thumbnail_width": 1280, "thumbnail_height": 963}
