106688 Days of Robinson Crusoe
Update for The Encantadas, Sketch Ninth: Hood’s Isle and the Hermit Oberlus:
I look’d now upon the world as a thing remote, which I had nothing to do with, no expectation from, and indeed no desires about: In a word, I had nothing indeed to do with it, nor was ever like to have; so I thought it look’d as we may perhaps look upon it hereafter.
Daniel Defoe: Robinson Crusoe, April 25, 1719 ff.
