The islet of Maguelonne is but one knot in the long thread of cordon littoral that reaches from Cette to Aigues Mortes, and it can be reached on foot by land from Palavas, but the simplest and shortest route is by boat in half an hour over the shallow mere, nowhere over three feet six inches deep.
"Toute fragiles fleurs, sitôt mortes que nées." Victor Hugo. Mrs. H.H.A. Beach. Copyright, 1892, by Arthur P. Schmidt. Horace, you know, promises to write so that any one will think him easy to equal, though much sweat will be shed in the effort.
She spent the night in the forest, and then took the road to Rome, and encountering a female pilgrim, exchanged clothes with her. Maguelone pursued her journey, prayed in S. Peter's Church at Rome, unnoticed by her uncle, who, with great state, passed by her kneeling there, and threw her alms. Then she went on to Genoa, where she took boat to Aigues Mortes.
