Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Studies of Paris
Here I am caught once more in this vast gilded net, into which one is drawn again and again, whether willing or not. The first time I remained here four months, thoroughly dissatisfied with myself, and glad to make my escape, but now that I return somewhat older and more mature and settled, I see the fault lay in myself, for woe to him who comes to Paris too young, and without any fixed aim in View, his head filled with vague notions and his pockets empty! Now I see Paris calmly - in com pany with a dear friend, Whose presence aids me in feeling more freshly and vividly all my impressions of the former visit.
Here are those of the first day as they can be rendered by a weary brain and a pen borrowed from the landlord.
