A WORD TO HIM WHO OPENS THIS BOOK

I did not plan when I began writing these chapters to make an
entire book, but only to put down the more or less unusual
impressions, the events and adventures, of certain quiet
pilgrimages in country roads. But when I had written down all of
these things, I found I had material in plenty.

"What shall I call it now that I have written it?" I asked
myself.
