CHAPTER XV

------“So hating, I say, to make mysteries of _nothing_” ----I intrusted

it with the post-boy, as soon as ever I got off the stones; he gave a

crack with his whip to balance the compliment; and with the thill-horse

trotting, and a sort of an up and a down of the other, we danced it

along to _Ailly au clochers_, famed in days of yore for the finest

chimes in the world; but we danced through it without music--the chimes

being greatly out of order--(as in truth they were through all

_France_).

And so making all possible speed, from

_Ailly au clochers_, I got to _Hixcourt_,

from _Hixcourt_, I got to _Pequignay_, and

from _Pequignay_, I got to AMIENS,

concerning which town I have nothing to inform you, but what I have

informed you once before----and that was--that _Janatone_ went there to

school.
