A Story of the Golden Age

To the simple-hearted folk who dwelt in that island three thousand years ago, therewas never a sweeter spot than sea-girt Ithaca. Rocky and rugged though it mayhave seemed, yet it was indeed a smiling land embosomed in the laughing sea.There the air was always mild and pure, and balmy with the breath of blossoms; thesun looked kindly down from a cloudless sky, and storms seldom broke the quietripple of the waters which bathed the shores of that island home. On every side butone, the land rose straight up out of the deep sea to meet the feet of craggy hillsand mountains crowned with woods. Between the heights were many narrow dellsgreen with orchards; while the gentler slopes were covered with vineyards, and thesteeps above them gave pasturage to flocks of long-wooled sheep and mountainclimbing goats.
