Excerpt from A Draught of Lethe: The Romance of an ArtistFor a moment I hesitated. Ghastly spectacles have no attraction for me. The next moment, however, I yielded to that instinct of the travelling Englishman which prompts him never to miss seeing anything when he is abroad.

Abroad, everything has at least the fascination that you may never have a chance of seeing it again.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
