Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Lost Leader The two men stood upon the top of a bank bordering the rough road which led to the sea. They were listening to the lark, which had risen fluttering from their feet a moment or so ago, and was circling now above their heads. Mannering, with a quiet smile, pointed upwards. "There, my friend!" he exclaimed. "You can listen now to arguments more eloquent than any which I could ever frame. That little creature is singing the true, uncorrupted song of life. He sings of the sunshine, the buoyant air; the pure and simple joy of existence is beating in his little heart. The things which lie behind the hills will never sadden him. His kingdom is here, and he is content." Borrowdean´s smile was a little cynical. He was essentially of that order of men who are dwellers in cities, and even the sting of the salt breeze blowing acress the marshes - marshes riven everywhere with long arms of the sea - could bring no colour to his pale cheeks.
