Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Journey Due South: Travels in Search of Sunshine Sait-on où l´on va? The question has been asked innumerable × and, on this side the grave, will never have an answer. The mad fellow in Plutarch whom the captain of the watch asked whither he was going, when he met him wandering up and down the town in the night season, replied that he did not know. "Ha!" cried the haughty captain of the watch. "Is it so? We shall see. March me this impudent vagabond off to prison, and lay him by the heels." "Yet made I a proper answer," quoth Pillgarlic as the soldiers haled him away. "I said that I knew not whither I was going. Did I know that I was going to gaol?" This hackneyed apologue must, in the main, serve as an introduction to this little volume of sketches of Continental Travel.
