Excerpt from China, in a Series of Views, Displaying the Scenery, Architecture, and Social Habits, of That Ancient Empire, Vol. 3
These last words found no echo in the heart of Hoe-fan, who was henceforth to become the prey of a lawless and a hopeless passion; and, proceeding rather as his animal carried than himself conducted, at length returned to his companions, who were overjoyed at again beholding their royal leader.

His request being granted, Hoo-fan set out.
