Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from South Sea Bubbles "Have you never had a bad bilious fever?" says Tom Cringle; "then you have never known what it is to be in heaven or in the other place." I have had a bad fever, and can testify to the truth of the remark. Physical, and, worse still, mental agonies of indescribable horror, followed by visions of perfect peace, happiness, and beauty. There are certain places and scenes that are always blended in my mind with those glorious, strange, delirious dreams, filling me with a luxurious feeling of poetry and pleasure; yet utterly indescribable, because half their charm lies in the remembrance of the happiness they brought me. And so it is that, urged by my fellow-laborer in this work, I sit down with a certain reluctance to write what I fear will be but a commonplace and colorless description of a place and time that will live forever in my thoughts as some splendid dream of beauty and pleasure.
