And the children of fifty years old and less pulled off shoes and stockings to wade in it; and we caught in tin mugs little seedling trouts not so long as that word "seedling" is on the page, and saw them swim in the mugs and set them free again; and we ate the lunches with appetites as of Arcadia; and we stumped happily home again, and found, as we went home, all the sketch-books and bait-boxes and neckties which we had lost as we went up.
She'll spend his money for him, will Mrs. Sponge. But it is here, within-doors, my dear Nokes, that the great transformation-scene has been effected. Pianos, harpsichords, sketch-books, these all bespeak the presence of lovely and accomplished woman. Robinson. May we venture to peep into this portfolio, my good fellow? that is, if the contents have the interest for us that we believe them to have.
I said a French soldier gave it to me as a souvenir. And several tetes d'obus? also souvenirs, I assured him merrily. Did Monsieur suppose I was caught in the act of blowing up the French Government, or what exactly? But here are a dozen sketch-books, what is in them? Oh, Monsieur, you flatter me: drawings.

The settlement of the question about his remaining in Vienna, and the security of the future brought about by the annuity, had the effect of increasing the productivity of the master. The sketch-books of this period abound in studies for orchestral, chamber and vocal studies. It was characteristic of Beethoven to show in this manner his appreciation of the compliment tendered him.
While working on the Mass in D, he had in mind composing another mass, as is evidenced by the following memorandum in the sketches of the Agnus Dei: "Das Kyrie in der neuen Messe bloss mit blasenden Instrumenten und Orgel." A memorandum on the subject of the Tenth Symphony appears in the sketch-books of the latter part of the year 1818.
We will roam over Europe with our sketch-books." "Oh, how delightful! To think of it my dreams will be realized! I knew your work, Jack, before I knew you.
