It is a bond wherewith the savage man may charm the outward hatchments of his soul, and soothe the troubled breast into a magnitude of quiet. It is most precious as a blessed balm, the saviour of princes, the harbinger of happiness, yea, the very stuff and pith of all we hold most dear. What frees the prisoner in his lonely cell, chained within the bondage of rude walls, far from the owl of Thebes? What fires and stirs the woodcock in his springe or wakes the drowsy apricot betides? What goddess doth the storm toss’d mariner offer her most tempestuous prayers to? Freedom! Freedom! Freedom! ---

No, well we don’t have ‘Rarnaby Budge’ by Charles Dikkens with two Ks, the well-known Dutch author, and perhaps to save time I should add that we don’t have ‘Karnaby Fudge’ by Darles Chickens, or ‘Farmer of Sludge’ by Marles Pickens, or even ‘Stickwick Stapers’ by Farles Wickens with four M’s and a silent Q!!! Why don’t you try W. H. Smith’s? ---
