on solid ground. The creature comforts
of a capable, vide awake. well ar
ranged city soothingly envelop him.
The cochero knows where he wants to
go, the waiter knows what he wants
to eat. The mounted policeman, in
breastplate and horsetail helmet, rides
him back with the rest of the crowd
and does it SO quietly and with
such sophisticated nonchalance that he
promptly conceives a passionate ad
miration for that policeman and his
