I descended a little on the side of that delicious vale, surveying it with a secret kind of pleasure, though mixed with my other afflicting thoughts, to think that this was all my own; that I was king and lord of all this country indefensibly, and had a right of possession; and if I could convey it, I might have it in inheritance as completely as any lord of a manor in England.
Az egész táj olyan frissnek, zöldnek, virágzónak tűnt, akár egy szépen gondozott kert. Lejjebb ereszkedtem a kellemes látványt nyújtó völgybe, és titkos örömmel gyönyörködtem benne, azt gondolván, hogy ez mind az enyém.
