Here and there is a large, painted garden-pot, halfburied in earth. Besides the large trees in blossom, there are littleones, probably of last year's setting out. Early in the day chambermaidsare seen hanging the bedclothes out of the upper windows; at the windowof the basement of the same house, I see a woman ironing. Were I asolitary prisoner, I should not doubt to find occupation of deep interestfor my whole day in watching only one of the houses. One house seems tobe quite shut up; all the ...blinds in the three windows of each of the fourstories being closed, although in the roof-windows of the attic story thecurtains are hung carelessly upward, instead of being drawn. I thick thehouse is empty, perhaps for the summer. The visible side of the wholerow of houses is now in the shade, --they looking towards, I should say, the southwest. Later in the day, they are wholly covered with sunshine, and continue so through the afternoon; and at evening the sunshine slowlywithdraws upward, gleams aslant upon the windows, perches on thechimneys, and so disappears.
