From When William Came, by Saki
AT THE CLUB
"He entered with a diffident sense of intrusion, conscious that his standing as a member might not be recognized by the keepers of the door; in a moment, however, he realized that a rajah's escort of elephants might almost have marched through the entrance hall and vestibule without challenge."
