It's a large window you look through on the big world--here in London; and, while I am for the moment missing many of the things that I've most cared about hitherto (such as working for the countryman, guessing at American public opinion, coffee that's fit to drink, corn bread, sunshine, and old faces) big new things come on the horizon.

Yet a man's personal experiences are nothing in comparison with the large job that our Government has to do in its Foreign Relations.

I'm beginning to begin to see what it is.

The American people are taken most seriously here.

I'm sometimes almost afraid of the respect and even awe in which they hold us.
