I do not know that I appreciated the beauty of the village I lived in so much with my own bodily eyes as through the songs and the literature, which were current talk. The old Abbey, with its 'prentice window, and its wonders in stonecarving, that Scott had written about and Washington Irving marvelled at "Here lies the race of the House of Yair" as a tombstone had a grand roll in it.
Put it right square...." But V. Vivian, gazing steadily over the chair-back, had obviously been stoking his inner fuel. "Ah! Rousing public opinion's no use at all?...

A look of wonder and deep content crept into her face as she watched for the first time the sun rise upon the new, the beautiful world beyond the bayou.
