Seeing Europe With Famous Authors Vol 5 Of 10 PDF Download

Excerpt from Seeing Europe With Famous Authors, Vol. 5 The diligence brought me here from Caen in about two hours and a half. The country, during the whole route, is open, well cultivated, occasionally gently undulating, but generally denuded of trees. Many pretty little churches, with delicate spires, peeped out to the right and left during the journey; but the first view of the cathedral of Bayeux put all the others out of my recollection. There is, in fact, no proper approach to this interesting edifice. The western end is suffocated with houses. Here stands the post-office; and with the most unsuspecting frankness, on the part of the owner, I had permission to examine, with my own hands, within doors, every letter - under the expectation that there were some for myself. Nor was I disappointed. But you must come with me to the cathedral, and of course we must enter together at the western front.
