The Sentiment of the Sword - A Countryhouse Dialogue (Classic Reprint)

Excerpt from The Sentiment of the Sword: A Countryhouse Dialogue

IN the long world journey of the traveller, who is something of an explorer, there are two lights. The greater is that wild and fiery joy which accompanies actual discovery; the lesser light is the mild and tranquil enjoyment snatched from rude life and spent amid the radiance and fragrance of civilisation.
