Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from The Rambles of an Idler To be sure, he can pitch its beauty into a cart and carry it off, and would, doubtless, to make a dollar; but I carry treasure from it every time I chance there and lie is none the poorer. I hope his legal and my ideal interests will never conflict. He who walks to best advantage goes to the country empty-handed and so is free to bring back what he finds. To reverse this order is often walking to no purpose. To take ones town-troubles and town-interests into the fields to give them an airing, may do them good, but not yourself. Go as empty-handed and empty-headed as you can. Unload all your cares in the house or in the street and when the open country is reached, you are in a truly receptive frame of mind. You have an appetite for novel impressions. The natural replaces the artificial so completely that, on returning, you scarcely know yourself, and find it hard to explain why so many really petty annoyances incident to town-life vex one so mightily.
