Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from A Tour Round England, Vol. 1 Glancing down from the golden cross of St. Paul´s, the crow cleaves the dim air westward over miles of nursery gardens - lonely plains of rich black earth, lit by a red foggy sun that glows like a red-hot shot. The fruit-tree leaves are brown and crimson above, the little green files of infant lettuces that are growing up for that ravenous monster London, whose hunger is insatiable as that of the Ocean. Edens, with the glory departed, are the gardens of Barnes and Chiswick now - Armada´s pleasaunces with the enchantment vanished. Instead of miles of rosy and snowy apple-blossoms, tangles of dead bines and rusted bushes; instead of great yellow gourd flowers, dingy fading and the damp odour of autumn´s decay. A little waste of furze, red piles of smoking bricks, a green gleam of meadows under the cold November sunlight, long lines of mossy garden walls, and we are at Brentford - the old British village by the ford of the Thames.
