Excerpt from Sense and Sensibility, Vol. 1 Wednesday, 12 September, 1900, was a beautiful day. The sun shone brilliantly, and the air had quality. Early in the morning we said farewell to Salisbury's tall and crooked spire, and after an early lunch at high noon we visited the splendid old Norman Abbey church at Rom sey. During the afternoon our bicycles carried us over an excellent road fringed with beautiful trees, and at Hursley we entered the sacred edi fice where saintly John Keble held forth the Word of Life. We did homage at his grave in the churchyard, and gazed without emotion at the house of Richard Cromwell. Over the downs we pedalled merrily, and late in the afternoon, under the level rays of the September sun, we entered the ancient capital of England, the cheer f 111 city of Winchester. Deep in the evening we saw the massive grey Cathedral glorified by the moon. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
