The following simple statement far below the sublime reality will prove, if proof be needed, that the men who live between the North and South Forelands are not inferior to their fathers who sailed with Blake and Nelson.
Then human forms appeared in the transparent azure haze overspreading both forelands. On the Siberian Cape, a man on his knees, stretched his arms towards America, with an expression of inconceivable despair. On the American promontory, a young and handsome woman replied to the man's despairing gesture by pointing to heaven.
Several Danish vessels were seen arriving at or quitting the coast, but the Dragon continued her course without heeding them, and rounding the Forelands, sailed along the south coast and made her way up the Parrot. Upon inquiry they learnt that no event of any importance had taken place during their absence. The Danes were complete masters of the country.
