Letter 1
|
_To Mrs. Saville, England._
|
St. Petersburgh, Dec. 11th, 17—.
|
You will rejoice to hear that no disaster has accompanied the
|
commencement of an enterprise which you have regarded with such evil
|
forebodings. I arrived here yesterday, and my first task is to assure
|
my dear sister of my welfare and increasing confidence in the success
|
of my undertaking.
|
I am already far north of London, and as I walk in the streets of
|
Petersburgh, I feel a cold northern breeze play upon my cheeks, which
|
braces my nerves and fills me with delight. Do you understand this
|
feeling? This breeze, which has travelled from the regions towards
|
which I am advancing, gives me a foretaste of those icy climes.
|
Inspirited by this wind of promise, my daydreams become more fervent
|
and vivid. I try in vain to be persuaded that the pole is the seat of
|
frost and desolation; it ever presents itself to my imagination as the
|
region of beauty and delight. There, Margaret, the sun is for ever
|
visible, its broad disk just skirting the horizon and diffusing a
|
perpetual splendour. There—for with your leave, my sister, I will put
|
some trust in preceding navigators—there snow and frost are banished;
|
and, sailing over a calm sea, we may be wafted to a land surpassing in
|
wonders and in beauty every region hitherto discovered on the habitable
|
globe. Its productions and features may be without example, as the
|
phenomena of the heavenly bodies undoubtedly are in those undiscovered
