Black Narcissus

??You can?t deny it, there is something wrong. Who ever heard of a Convent with a dirty Sunnyasi in its garden, and a man of Mr. Dean?s reputation going in and out like one of ourselves, and that scented ?Black Narcissus,? as Sister Ruth calls him,?and a very good name for him, too,?peacocking about in front of us all; in front of those young girls. I call it asking for trouble.??

?Rumer Godden, from Black Narcissus, 1939. In the film, ?that scented ?Black Narcissus?? is played wonderfully by Sabu.
