Source of the quotation
If you visit
the online version of The Wallet of Kai Lung by Ernest Bramah, and scroll about 3/4 of the way through the single very long page, you'll find the quotation used in the heading of this blog:
"Alas!" said Hiya, "the sentiments which this person expressed with irreproachable honourableness when the sun was high in the heavens and the probability of secretly leaving an undoubtedly well-appointed home was engagingly remote, seem to have an entirely different significance when recalled by night in a damp orchard, and on the eve of their fulfilment.
I post the information for those who have wondered and posted comments
elsewhere in this blog.
