But this danger vanished forever on the day of the slaughter by the Teutoburger Wald, when the legions of Varus were broken by the rush of Hermann's wild warriors. Two or three hundred years later the Germans, no longer on the defensive, themselves went forth from their marshy forests conquering and to conquer.
Behind the Grosser Wald the ground sinks away to the valley in which runs the Bitsch-Reichshofen railway. In front of MacMahon's position lay the village of Wörth, deep in the valley of the Sauerbach.
The Norwegians call this species of sea fowl Maase; which is probably the Larus Candidus; a new species, named in the voyage of Captain Phipps, afterwards Lord Mulgrave, Larus eburneus, from being perfectly white. By John Muller, plate xii. it is named Lams albus; and seems to be the same called Raths kerr, in Martens Spitzbergen, and Wald Maase, in Leoms Lapland.
He was aware of the thorough inconsistency of his attitude toward their marriage; again two opposed forces were present in him one, Fanny, as, bound to her, he knew and cherished; and the other the devil take the other! He was organizing a new company, and, figuring impatiently, he pressed the button for Mrs. Wald, his secretary.
It has been a sort of pilgrimage, I think gasthaus zur Landes Grenze. "The scenery is naught in comparison with the Scots Highlands, or even our Pentlands. It is only in Scotland and the Lakes that hills of humble height look Alpine. The Wald is something like your Harz, but higher; so adieu. Love to all from J.H. BURTON." "THALE, Monday, 5th July 1879.

I was of course unable to introduce a new motive, because that would have involved a remodelling of almost the whole work; all I was able to do was to develop the sentiment a little more broadly, in the form of a kind of enlarged cadence. Gretchen of course could not be introduced, only Faust himself: "ein unbegreiflich holder Drang, trieb mich durch Wald und Wiesen hin," etc
But I have gone into a siding here to see the much-boasted, and, it would seem, newly discovered touring ground of the Wald. "I have got through my work now, but I can still find some in the neighbourhood of Antwerp, so that is my point, and there I shall hope for letters.
He is not the best Wright that hews the maniest speals. He that evill does, never good weins. Hoordom and grace, can never bide in one place. He that counts all costs, will never put plow in the yeard. He that slayes, shall be slain. He that is ill of his harbery, is good of his way kenning. He that will not when he may, shalt not when he wald. Hanging gangs by hap.
There is a torrent across the valley of the Rhéthal, but it must be frozen now. In any case, if you can get no farther, you will find on your left, on following the bank, a cavern half-way up the hill, called Roche Creuse. You can spend the night there, and to-morrow very likely, if the wind falls, you will see the Wald Horn before you.
I care not. Thou mayst repent of thy folly when I am gone. "'Robene thou has hard soung and say, In gesties and stories auld The man that will not quhen he may, Sall haif nocht quhen he wald." Never mair, Rob Paterson, shalt thou have offer of spirit of wine. It shall go there first!"
