“Our knowledge of how men lived and thought in the Valley of the Nile five or six thousand years before the Christian era is ever on the increase. It keeps pace with the march of {{w|Egyptology#Modern Egyptology|discovery}}, and that march extends every year over a wider area. Each season beholds the exploration of new sites, and each explorer has some new thing to tell.”

“{{w|Jean-Jacques Ampère|{{small-caps|Ampère}}}} has put Egypt in an epigram. " A donkey-ride and a boating-trip interspersed with ruins " does, in fact, sum up in a single line the whole experience of the Nile traveller. Àpropops of these three things—the donkey, the boat, and the ruins—it may be said that a good {{w|English saddle}} and a comfortable Dahabeeyah add very considerably to the pleasure of the journey; and that the more one knows about the past history of the country, the more one enjoys the ruins.”

“Till the publication of {{w|John Ball (naturalist)|Ball}}'s Guide to the Eastern Alps in 1868, and the appearance of Messrs. Gilbert and Churchill's joint volume in 1864,—the {{w|Dolomites|Dolomite district}} was scarcely known even by name to any but scientific travellers. A few geologists found their way now and then to {{w|Predazzo}} ; a few artists, attracted in the first instance to {{w|Cadore}} as the birthplace of {{w|Titian}}, carried their sketch-books up the {{w|Cortina d'Ampezzo|Ampezzo Thal}} ; but there it ended.”
