of-saving Se of-those-days y and-even Ay carried-away
The Fens, a stretch of marsh along the shores of the Wash, used to be the scene of many a
chance affray and many a set battle owing to the inroads of the Saxons and Danes on the
domains of the natives. It seems to have been a vast primeval forest at the time of the
Romans, who, with their usual vigilance, saw a means of saving this expanse from the ravages
of the waves by a clearance of the trees and the raising of banks. King John, of whose violence
against the barons there is but one opinion, nearly lost his life in one of the treacherous
channels of the Wash. Those who have read Kingsley’s romance of the endurance and stout
resistance of the Saxons in the Isle of Ely, must have been struck by the graphic details of the
rough roads of those days, and even now they are none too easy for transit. Times out of
number, the waves of the sea carried away property, causing havoc and distress to the
farmers.

If I annoy you in the deliverance of my opinion, as the chances are I may, put it down to a
reading man’s reverence for books, and his diligence in the pursuit of @ course which lightens
many an hour for him. Think of these significant facts, and your frowns may vanish. If you
have a love of books, you will feel no loneliness if and when men forget you. You can dispense
with them in the circumstances; for you will have within yourself, through the brains of your
authors, many better men to replace them. The balance of advantage in the change Is likely to
be in your favour. You will grasp the significance of this remark, I am sure; for the man who
derives pleasure from reading books makes for himself reserves of strength to call upon
against the time of trouble or stress
