“Through the clouds of smoke I seemed to see all old Asia before me, and the adventures of past years behind me. A carnival of old camp-scenes danced before my mindâ€™s eye, expiring like shooting-stars in the nightâ€”merry songs which came to an end among other mountains and the dying sound of strings and flutes.
