Not illustrated. 1898 edition. Excerpt: ...alone to-morrow, and, before settling down to Views, shall give myself a week in Paris, which, sad as she is, and in spite of the garish vulgarity of the Second Empire, that went far to ruin her charm, remains ever "la ville ou on peut le mieux se passerdu bonheur." BOOK VIII '. Prove yourself; and if you are afraid, go back ivith the East-ivind ivho brought you hither.
