Meanwhile, do not be in a hurry to say, "Only a chalk-cart," or only a mouse, or only a dead leaf. Chalk-carts, like mice, and dead leaves, and most other matters in the universe are very curious and odd things in the eyes of wise and reasonable people.

But think are not chalk-carts very odd and curious things? I think they are. To my mind, it is a curious question how men ever thought of inventing wheels; and, again, when they first thought of it. And a very curious, and, to me, a beautiful sight it is, to see those two noble horses obeying that little boy, whom they could kill with a single kick.

Only some chalk-carts? It seems to me that these chalk-carts are the very things we want; that if we follow them far enough I do not mean with our feet along the public road, but with our thoughts along a road which, I am sorry to say, the public do not yet know much about we shall come to a cave, and understand how a cave is made.

This is the true glory. The theatre last night was the fairy land of man; but this is the fairy land of God." What do you want to know about next? More about the caves in which the old savages lived, how they were made, and how the curious things inside them got there, and so forth. Well, we will talk about that in good time: but now What is that coming down the hill? Oh, only some chalk-carts.
