〃A 'Bummel';〃 I explained; 〃I should describe as a journey; long or
short; without an end; the only thing regulating it being the necessity of
getting back within a given time to the point from which one started。
Sometimes it is through busy streets; and sometimes through the fields and
lanes; sometimes we can be spared for a few hours; and sometimes for a
few days。 But long or short; but here or there; our thoughts are ever on
the running of the sand。 We nod and smile to many as we pass; with
some we stop and talk awhile; and with a few we walk a little way。 We
have been much interested; and often a little tired。 But on the whole we
have had a pleasant time; and are sorry when 'tis over。〃
