Excerpt from Some Impressions of OxfordDO you remember, dear companion of past days so long passed already, do you remember our walks through the arden of the Luxemburg ten years ago is-iappy time when, under the pretence of prepar ing for our examinations we talked of literature, amongst the marble statues in which lives again the remembrance of princesses long since gone! The statues themselves were very ordinary pieces of sculpture, but the names of the queens inscribed on the pedestals made us dream -vaguely. There ¿oated before us on the afternoon air of the spring-time and autumn, the hope of a life so noble and so pure. Our great joy then was to dis cuss art, our worst grief the thought of the uncertainty of the truths of meta physics and religion.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
