I observe here as much wealth and 'prosperity' as in my own country." Juptka-Getch smiled and after a few moments answered: "The only person in this country that owns anything is the King; in the service of his people he afflicts himself with that burden.
Ah! it is an unearthly feeling, and painfully afflicts my heart. How to get rid of it I do not know. If I remain quietly where I am, by collecting its scattered rays it burns more deeply into my soul, bringing forth deep sighs, groans, and at times demanding all my energy to repress an unnatural howl. "How shall I escape this? By remaining here and trying to bear it, or by travelling?

His mechanical ingenuity bordered on the marvelous.
