1 We are not worried with other travellers, and so even I can drive.
2 And so it is that we are travelling towards Galatz in an agony of expectation.
3 Like them we shall travel towards the sunrise; and like them, if we fall, we fall in good cause.
4 I shall enter here some of my notes, as they may refresh my memory when I talk over my travels with Mina.
5 He and I sometimes write letters in shorthand, and he is keeping a stenographic journal of his travels abroad.
6 The suit in which I had travelled was gone, and also my overcoat and rug; I could find no trace of them anywhere.

9 It would take them some time to get the carriage and horses; so if they had started and travelled hard, they would be about now at the Borgo Pass.
10 It will take her at the quickest speed she has ever made at least three weeks to reach Varna; but we can travel overland to the same place in three days.
11 We are travelling fast, and as we have no driver with us to carry tales, we go ahead of scandal; but I daresay that fear of the evil eye will follow hard behind us all the way.
12 It was a new shock to me to find that he had on the suit of clothes which I had worn whilst travelling here, and slung over his shoulder the terrible bag which I had seen the women take away.
13 Every scrap of paper was gone, and with it all my notes, my memoranda, relating to railways and travel, my letter of credit, in fact all that might be useful to me were I once outside the castle.
14 I kept my eyes fixed on the window, but the wolf drew his head back, and a whole myriad of little specks seemed to come blowing in through the broken window, and wheeling and circling round like the pillar of dust that travellers describe when there is a simoon in the desert.
