Chateau in Brittany (Classic Reprint)

Mary Josephine Atkinson

4.9/5 (14549 ratings)

Description:Excerpt from Chateau in Brittany The attack of Europe by way of a fresh point of entry leads to disillusion, and the conviction that experience teaches nine tenths of us very little. Forgetting how scant a knowledge we have acquired of Dover, Calais, Newhaven, or Dieppe, we await the revelations of Cherbourg with an expectation that speaks ill for our intelligence. No sooner has the soul triumphed over the humiliating physical revolt at the freedom with which the waves disregard our comfort, than it recoups itself by soaring into imaginary realms where coming delights wear a golden halo of mystery. In the event, what actually happens is the usual and commonplace. There comes a night wherein affrighted sleep flees before the jerky pounding of a donkey engine. Flying feet along the corridors, dragging noises and shuffling progresses above our heads, quick sharp voices of command help to hinder our capturing the shy fugitive, till worn out in the fruitless effort we welcome the summons that calls us forth hours earlier than is our wont.
