Catriona, A Sequel to Kidnapped by Robert Louis Stevenson, Fiction, Classics

You are still -- as when first I saw, as when I last addressed you -- in the venerable city which I must always think of as my home. And I have come so far; and the sights and thoughts of my youth pursue me; and I see like a vision the youth of my father, and of his father, and the whole stream of lives flowing down there far in the north, with the sound of laughter and tears, to cast me out in the end, as by a sudden freshet, on these ultimate islands. And I admire and bow my head before the romance of destiny. -- RLS
