Excerpt from A Gallop Among American Scenery, or Sketches of American Scenes and Military AdventureAlas! Me miserable. What shalli do! The spirit of ennui rides me as thoroughly as did the old man Of the sea Sinbad the sailor. Eh! They're the dumb bells. Diminish nervous excitability, by muscular exertion. Good - humph and there's the Old lady's nerves below how the Wind roars and rumbles round the chimney tops. Rain - rain - rain. There! That tin spout is choked, and the gutter is pouring over a young cataract. Oh! That I were a newspaper carrier, or a Whale - or the sea serpent, chasing the down East fishermen - or - in short, any thing, SO that I need not mind the wet. Hum - hum - What shalli do? I have it. Eureka! I have it. I'll Sit down and give my friend of the American an account of my last ramble.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
