Inhaltsangabe

Excerpt from In the Footsteps of Borrow and Fitzgerald<br/><br/>I jump up like mad, Break the old pipe in twain, And away to the meadows, The meadows again. Only with me it is a pen that I break, and, for a time, my connection with Fleet Street and I will not again look up its dingy courts or listen to its vibrating machinery until the departure of the swallows from the land to which I go tells me that the summer is ended and that winter approaches. I am going to the land of my forefathers, the country that held and charmed me in my youth, and the land' that ever calls me, as the magnetism of the frozen North draws the mariner who has once explored its icy fastnesses.
