Excerpt from The Country DoctorIts water-course, diverted from the torrent and con ducted through great square conduits of wood, from the crevices of which a sheet of thin streams issues. Here and there, thatched cottages, surrounded by gardens full of fruit-trees covered with blossoms, suggest the ideas inspired by an industrious pov erty. Farther on, houses with red roofs, of ¿at and rounded tiles similar to fishes' scales, represent the ease gained by long industry. Over every door may be seen the basket suspended in which the cheeses are drying. Everywhere, the openings, the enclosures, are enlivened by vines embracing, as in Italy, the dwarf elms, the leaves of which are fed to cattle.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
