I cannot say I altogether like the tone of the second line, but the fury of enthusiasm, shackled by the exigencies of rhyme, must be forgiven much. Let us continue.
Across the night the motors throb
Without the slightest hitch,
For this is quite a business job,
Though in romance so rich.
Indeed, the whole stupendous plot
Is cleverly arranged;
Even the motor-cars have got
Their number plates all changed.
And so they speed by tortuous ways
