We not only look into the future, but we stretch out our hands.

We make the doubtful places sure.

Our turn of mind is scientific.

Our road-making and our bridge-building, our empire-making and our diplomacy, they are all fashioned in the same manner.

If you could trust us, Mr.
Norgate, if you could trust yourself to work for the good of both countries, we could make very good and profitable use of you during the next six months.
