Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Journey to the World Under-Ground This was an Evil that attended myself as well as several of the Norway Students, who return´d from the Study of the Arts and Sciences into their own Country stript of all they were worth. As we had a pretty brisk Gale, after a Voyage of six Days we arrived at Bergen Harbour. Being thus restor´d to my Country, something wiser indeed, tho´ by no Means richer, I was supported for a Time at the Expence of my near Relations, and led a precarious Sort of Life, yet not altogether indolent and inactive. For in order to clear up by Experience some Points of natural Philosophy, the Study I had devoted myself to, I rambled over every Corner of the province, with an insatiable Curiosity, to explore the Nature of the Earth, and to search into the very bowels of our Mountains. No Rock so steep but I climb´d it; no Cavern so hideous and deep, but I made a Descent into it, to try if haply I could discover any Thing curious and worthy the Inquiry of a Philosopher.
