Strona 98 z 483

The month of May had already commenced, and I expected the letter

daily which was to fix the date of my departure, when Henry

proposed a pedestrian tour in the environs of Ingolstadt, that I

might bid a personal farewell to the country I had so long

inhabited. I acceded with pleasure to this proposition: I was

fond of exercise, and Clerval had always been my favourite

companion in the ramble of this nature that I had taken among the

scenes of my native country.
