When old men meet and part you may see that each takes the other's hand to his mouth and breathes from it; and that when they smoke they blow the first six puffs to different directions.

By the old trails — which...
第 68 頁 - Living with my Indian friends I found I was a stranger in my native land. As time went on the outward aspect of nature remained the same but a change was wrought in me.
