Let The Most Absent-minded Of Men Be Plunged In His Deepest Reveries--stand That Man On His Legs, Set His Feet A-going, And He Will Infallibly Lead You To Water, If Water There Be In All That Region.

Yes, As Every One Knows, Meditation And Water Are Wedded For Ever.

There Is Nothing Namable But That Some Men Will, Or Undertake To, Do It For Pay.
