Excerpt from Joseph Noirel's Revenge
Although perfect happiness is not of this world some thing very like it was to be found, a few years ago, in a country house two or. Three miles from Geneva, on the main road from that city to saint-julien. This house, which its inmates had christened Mon is approached by means of a long avenue of pear-trees and presents an agreeable pic ture to the passer-by. Standing on the summit of a grassy slope, surrounded by masses of verdure and a garden of roses, it overlooks an orchard on the west and a-terraced vineyard on the east. This vineyard is bordered by a brook and a row of willows.
