Gravesend









The air was dark above Gravesend, and farther back still seemed condensed into a mournful gloom, brooding motionless over the biggest, and the greatest, town on earth.











The sea-reach of the Thames stretched before us like the beginning of an interminable waterway.
















Between us there was, as I have already said somewhere, the bond of the sea.
