Présentation de l'éditeur
Now in any excursion you get into all sorts of odd company, and fall into talk with persons out of your ordinary rule, and you borrow a match and get lent a magazine, and, as likely as not, you may hear the whole tragedy and comedy of a ham and beef carvers life. So you will get a view of the world as oddly coloured as Harlequin sclothes, with puffs of sentiment dear to the soul of Columbine, and Clownish fun with Pantaloonish wisdom and chuckles. When you were young, you used, I think, to enjoy a butterflys kiss, and that, you remember, was when your mother brushed your cheek with her eyelashes. And also when you were young you held a buttercup under other childrens chins to see if they liked butter, and they always did, and the golden glow showed and the world was glad.
