Description

We who are Tiverton born, though false ambition may have ridden us to market, or the world's voice incited us to kindred clamoring, have a way of shutting our eyes, now and then, to present changes, and seeing things as they were once, as they are still, in a certain sleepy yet altogether individual corner of country life.

First words
We who are Tiverton born, though false ambition may have ridden us to market, or the world's voice incited us to kindred clamoring, have a way of shutting our eyes, now and then, to present changes, and seeing things as they ... (show all)were once, as they are still, in a certain sleepy yet altogether individual corner of country life.
Last words
(Click to show. Warning: May contain spoilers.)As Hiram Cole again remarked, it is a serious thing to draw too heavily on the nerve-juice.
