"We have only stopped to look at the view. It's no good coming to see a country, and then not seeing it." "And we have had to pull up some stiff hills." "Besides, it has been an exceptionally hot day to-day." "Well, don't forget St. Blasien is twenty-five miles off, that's all." "Any more hills?" "Yes, two; up and down." "I thought you said it was downhill into St. Blasien?"
It does seem somewhat impossible to do less, on paper. But at four o'clock in the afternoon the voice of Duty rings less trumpet- toned: "Well, I suppose we ought to be getting on." "Oh, there's no hurry! don't fuss. Lovely view from here, isn't it?" "Very. Don't forget we are twenty-five miles from St. Blasien." "How far?" "Twenty-five miles, a little over if anything."
Pretty little place, that Titisee, according to the map; looks as if there would be good air there." "All right, I'm agreeable. It was you fellows who suggested our making for St. Blasien." "Oh, I'm not so keen on St. Blasien! poky little place, down in a valley. This Titisee, I should say, was ever so much nicer." "Quite near, isn't it?" "Five miles." General chorus: "We'll stop at Titisee."
"So it is for the last ten miles. We are twenty-five miles from St. Blasien here." "Isn't there anywhere between here and St. Blasien? What's that little place there on the lake?" "It isn't St. Blasien, or anywhere near it. There's a danger in beginning that sort of thing." "There's a danger in overworking oneself. One should study moderation in all things.
Paul is, oddly enough, one of the very earliest Irish vernacular MSS. I believe it came thither in fairly recent times from St. Blasien in the Black Forest. But, on the whole, these places were too remote from the main stream to accumulate many treasures of the very first quality.
They have forgotten the Middle Ages and have not yet found modern art. To the peasant of the Black Forest, the splendid, baroque, dome-shaped church of St. Blasien is a much greater marvel of native art than the Freiburg cathedral.
