As it would be of small advantage to a man to live in a house with 10,000 windows if he never looked out of one of them, so a man who goes around the world constantly shut up in his own self-satisfactions and prejudices can get very little out of it. Indeed, it may be said of such people that they cannot see anything for themselves. They are always in their own way. They themselves are the obstacle always interposed between their own mental state and the sub/object. Without reflection and abstraction from self it may be questioned whether any tangible sub/object in the universe is capable of producing a very beneficial effect on the mind. Mount Vesuvio for example is a vast and always changing mass of fire and cinders. There is nothing much more remarkable in that ipso facto than there would be in a gigantic gas works.

Thus when the Admiral persists in his usual courtly custom of dressing himself in full uniform with gold lace, silk stockings and God knows what orders and decorations, he is warned by his officer(s) most emphatically that his life is particularly sought by the French and that he exposes himself to very great danger. It is represented to him that the enemy has a new custom of carrying riflemen in the tops of his ships and that by making himself conspicuous to the meanest observation as the Admiral of the Fleet, he hazards his safety and, necessarily with it, the fortune of the day. Apart from these representations no man can better know the real extent of the danger of such a practice than the great man to whom they were made because it is a fact in his history that he had always opposed himself to this use of the rifle as cowardly and cruel.

When the city clock(s) strike/struck 12 it emerges from the closet in my room opposite the foot of the bed and stands there until morning.” In reply to the question how this spectre was dressed, he said in green, with a high-crowned green hat.
