Love-Acre: An Idyl in Two Worlds (Classic Reprint) - Tapa blanda

Excerpt from Love-Acre: An Idyl in Two Worlds

Was it a corner of paradise or a slum in a place of uncelestial fire? Who can tell? Who dare even guess? An observer, from one of the planets, would probably only have seen a strange light moving in and out on a plot of ground named at random by either a world's surveyor or a casual visitor Love-Acre. The light appearing and disappearing in the little plot was certainly under control in the same way that our lanterns are. To an observer from a distance, however, impressions may be at fault or intuitions prove fallacies. Here and there the light flickered, glimmered, and now and then almost went out. Then as it reappeared it seemed to dip and dodge as if the holder of the lantern was undecided what to gather in such a wilderness of Love.
