“In the vast archipelago of the east, where Borneo and Java and Sumatra lie, and the Molucca Islands, and the Philippines, the sea is often fanned only by the land and sea breezes, and is like a smooth bed, on which these islands seem to sleep in bliss,--islands in which the spice and perfume gardens of the world are embowered, and where the bird of paradise has its home, and the golden pheasant, and a hundred others of brilliant plumage, whose flight is among thickets so luxuriant, and scenery so picturesque, that European strangers find there the fairy land of their youthful dreams.” WorldHomeDreamSeemsLyingSleepSeaLandBedBirdHundredGardenStrangerEastBrilliantGoldenFlightBlissIslandsParadiseFairySmoothPerfumeBreezeSpicesSceneryPhilippinesJavaPicturesqueThicketsLand And SeaSea BreezePheasantsBorneo Author:Frederick Marryat
