The idea, overnight, had been that we should get up early in the morning, fling off our rugs and shawls, and, throwing back the canvas, spring into the river with a joyous shout, and revel in a long delicious swim.
Notre projet, la veille, était de nous lever tôt, d’envoyer promener nos châles et couvertures, de sauter a l’eau en poussant de grands cris joyeux et de nous livrer aux délices de la natation.
