much to make the world better。
The worst that can be said against them is that they have their
failings。 They themselves do not know this; they consider
themselves perfect; which is foolish of them。 They even go so far
as to think themselves superior to the Anglo…Saxon: this is
incomprehensible。 One feels they must be pretending。
〃They have their points;〃 said George; 〃but their tobacco is a
national sin。 I'm going to bed。〃
We rose; and leaning over the low stone parapet; watched the
dancing lights upon the soft; dark river。
〃It has been a pleasant Bummel; on the whole;〃 said Harris; 〃I
shall be glad to get back; and yet I am sorry it is over; if you
understand me。〃
〃What is a 'Bummel'?〃 said George。 〃How would you translate it?〃
〃A 'Bummel';〃 I explained; 〃I should describe as a journey; long or
short; without an end; the only thing regulating it being the
necessity of getting back within a given time to the point from
which one started。 Sometimes it is through busy streets; and
sometimes through the fields and lanes; sometimes we can be spared
for a few hours; and sometimes for a few days。 But long or short;
but here or there; our thoughts are ever on the running of the
sand。 We nod and smile to many as we pass; with some we stop and
talk awhile; and with a few we walk a little way。 We have been
much interested; and often a little tired。 But on the whole we
have had a pleasant time; and are sorry when 'tis over。〃
