(To describe the Kaiser=old insane rage =royal master in exile after WWI )Many a retired major in Cheltenham or Bath would have thought the same at that date. Only occasionally would glimpses of the old insane rage burst out to disturb the quiet routines of his secretaries and ADCs: then there would be furious denunciations by their royal master of the disloyalty of the army, the navy, the Prussian nobility, which had allowed him to come to such a pass. Sometimes, his bitterness was directed against the Jews. (A N Wilson After the Victorians)
Q: To describe the Kaiser=old insane rage =royal master, "Only occasionally would glimpses of the old insane rage burst out to disturb the quiet routines of his secretaries and ADCs":
Only is placed at the beginning of the S , and partial inversion is followed. But glimpses serving as the subject of burst out appears not as normal as that the old insane rage as subject , or my identification is all misunderstanding. the Kaiser=old insane rage =royal maste my equation is right?
Many thanks
