So eager was he to drink, that at first he heeded nought else; but when his thirst was fully quenched his eyes caught sight of the stream which flowed from the well, and he gave a shout, for lo! it was running south.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
