Produktbeschreibung

Excerpt from Adventures of a Younger Son, Vol. 2 "Rapt in the fond forgetfulness of life, Neuha, the South Sea girl, was all a wife; With no distracting world to call her off From love; with no society to scoff At the new transient flame; no babbling crowd Of coxcombry in admiration loud, Or with adulterous whisper, to alloy Her duty, and her glory, and her joy." Byron. We had now been some months luxuriating in a tranquil life, little disturbed or marked by events worth recording, every moment of which lives fresh in my memory, when De Ruyter received intelligence that determined him to prepare for sea. His spirit knew no pause when an object was to be obtained. His mind, like a lens, concentrated its power into one piercing ray. From the instant he arrived on shore he had doffed his sea-garb, put on that of a planter, and with it the character. They both sat on him so well that a stranger would have thought he never had worn any other. Horticulture and agriculture, pruning and planting, exclusively occupied him, hand and heart.
