He wrote this letter while in prison at Venice. See Fox's Acts and Monuments, edit. 1631. vol. ii. p. 181. Mr. Southey thought that this letter gave Bunyan some germ of his Pilgrim's Progress!! He takes it from the words, 'In this world there is no mansion firm for me, and therefore I will travel up to the New Jerusalem, which is in heaven. Life of Bunyan, p. xc. Ed.
After all, the more a man contemplates Nature, the more he discovers in it an inexhaustible stock of wisdom, which is, as it were, the soul of the universe. SECT. XC.

This Marcos stared insolently at all of us. Then with a laugh and a grimace at me, he ran after the man and they disappeared together around the corner of the Palace of the Governors. And in the rush of strange sights I forgot them both for a time. Our dwelling-place in all generations. Psalms xc, 1. They are wonderful to me still those few brief days that followed.
I shall return here the end of the month, and when they play Cadio, I shall beg you to spend twenty-four hours here for me. Will you do it? Yes, you are too good a troubadour to refuse me. I embrace you with all my heart, and your mother too. I am happy that she is well. G. Sand XC. TO GUSTAVE FLAUBERT Nohant, 18 September, 1868 It will be, I think, the 8th or 10th of October.
