A fine house was built on Barke land, with large windows,
and smooth white walls; but before it, where the old house had in fact stood,
was a little garden laid out, and a wild grapevine ran up the wall of the
neighboring house. Before the garden there was a large iron railing with
an iron door, it looked quite splendid, and people stood still and peeped in.
