A guard was posted there, and probably ordered to stand at the edge of the stream, but it smelled so vilely in those scorching days that he had consulted his feelings and probably his health, by retiring to the top of the bank, a rod or more distant. We watched night after night, and at last were gratified to find that none went nearer the Creak than the top of this bank.

The lines are as straight and equidistant as if ruled; and from beginning to end, there is no physical symptom as how should there be? of a varying mood, of jets of emotion, or any of those fluctuating feelings that pass from the hearts into the fingers of common men.
