"La mienne!" exclaimed Raoul "I pretend to none, mon brave; there can be no likeness to nothing."
All this heightened by the extremely rare atmosphere of New Zealand, in which every detail stood out at even that distance clear and distinct, made up a picture which for beauty and grandeur can rarely be equalled in the world. Upon arrival at Christchurch we put up at a neat little inn on the outskirts of the town, called Rule's accommodation house.
