In the dusk hares come heedlessly along ; the elder-bushes gleam white with creamy petals Vhrough the night. Sparrows and partridges alike dust themselves in the white dust, an inch deep, of midsummer, in the road between the wall and the corn — a pitiless Sahara road to traverse at noonday in July, when the air is still and you walk in a hollow way, the yellow wheat on one side and the wall on the other. There is shade in the park within, but a furnace of sunlight without — weari- ness to the ...eyes and feet from glare and dust. The wall winds with the highway, and cannot be escaped. It goes up the slight elevations and down the slopes ; it has become settled down and bound with time. But presently there is a steeper dip, and at the , bottom, in a narrow valley, a streamlet flows out from the wheat into the park. A spring rises at the foot of the down a mile away, and the channel it has formed winds across the plain. It is narrow and shallow ; nothing but a larger furrow, filled in winter by the rains rushing off the fields, and in summer a rill scarce half an inch deep.
