Rathmullan Sailing School

A wonderful serenity has taken possession of my entire soul,
like these sweet mornings of spring which I enjoy with my whole heart. I am
alone, and feel the charm of existence in this spot, which was created for the
bliss of souls like mine. I am so happy, my dear friend, so absorbed in the
exquisite sense of mere tranquil existence, that I neglect my talents. I should
be incapable of drawing a single stroke at the present moment; and yet I feel
that I never was a greater artist than now.
