Seite 177 - All the appearances of nature I was therefore careful to study, and every country which I have surveyed has contributed something to my poetical powers." "In so wide a survey," said the prince, "you must surely have left much unobserved. I have lived, till now, within the circuit of these mountains and yet cannot walk abroad without the sight of something which I had never beheld before or never heeded.
