"--The Book of Genesis. ) The unexpected awaited us in this palace of beauty, in the finding ofour little fishing-craft. It had been brought before the High Priest inperfect shape, just as it had been taken from the waters that day whenit was loaded on board the ship by the people who discovered us on theriver more than a year before. We were given an audience of over two hours with this great dignitary, who seemed kindly disposed and considerate. He showed himself eagerlyinterested, asking us ...numerous questions, and invariably regardingthings about which his emissaries had failed to inquire. At the conclusion of the interview he inquired our pleasure, asking uswhether we wished to remain in his country or if we preferred to returnto the "outer" world, providing it were possible to make a successfulreturn trip, across the frozen belt barriers that encircle both thenorthern and southern openings of the earth. My father replied: "It would please me and my son to visit your countryand see your people, your colleges and palaces of music and art, yourgreat fields, your wonderful forests of timber; and after we have hadthis pleasurable privilege, we should like to try to return to our homeon the 'outside' surface of the earth.
