This place is most beautiful. We love it far more than we thought we should. The river is an incessant pleasure, and is always handing us small nosegays of beauty or entertainment. The latest nosegay is a posy of three fat young water-rats who have just learned to swim. They cross the river swimming with every limb, their tails lashing about, their eyes beady with purpose; and swarm up the bank and sit in a clutch, pressed close together, chewing the same iris stalk. Now the nightingales have just arrived. They came on a night of sharp frost, it was curious to hear their passionate excited voices singing of summer on that rigid silence of frost.1
