George MacDonald Quotes
Now In These Subterranean Caverns Lived A Strange Race Of Beings, Called By Some Gnomes, By Some Kobolds, By Some Goblins. There Was A Legend Current In The Country That At One Time They Lived Above Ground, And Were Very Like Other People. But For Some Reason Or Other, Concerning Which There Were Different Legendary Theories, The King Had Laid What They Thought Too Severe Taxes Upon Them, Or Had Required Observances Of Them They Did Not Like, Or Had Begun To Treat Them With More Severity, In Some Way Or Other, And Impose Stricter Laws; And The Consequence Was That They Had All Disappeared From The Face Of The Country. According To The Legend, However, Instead Of Going To Some Other Country, They Had All Taken Refuge In The Subterranean Caverns, Whence They Never Came Out But At Night, And Then Seldom Showed Themselves In Any Numbers, And Never To Many People At Once.
