Excerpt from A Will and a Way, Vol. 1 of 2
Montezuma had his fish for dinner fresh out of the sea every day. The journey between the city of Mexico and the coast - the same which Montezuma's footmen traversed three centuries and a-half ago - is now with difficulty performed in fifty hours by a Spanish diligencia. This can hardly be called progression in any sense. Yet is it pretty much the rate at which Spanish matters generally speed, for, above whatsoever soil her imperial standard waves, its influence is felt like the shade of the deadly upas.
