Sinossi

Excerpt from Notes and Queries, Vol. 9: A Medium of Intercommunication for Literary Men, General Readers, Etc.; January-June, 1884

Sandy Isle, is uniformly so. It consists of a nucleus of sand banks, surrounded by narrow outlying ridges, and looks like a large octopus floating on the surface of the water, with its arms distended, waiting for its prey. When the north wind howls around the storm-swept islands, the prey, unfortunately, does not fail to arrive. Once caught between these low spurs of land, that remain unperceived until too near to be avoided, a ship seldom escapes. These are nature's sterner aspects, as seen during the winter months. During the months of June, July, and August the scene is different. The long northern twilight prevails from the end of May till the beginning of August. The sun then just dips below the horizon, as if his setting was a mere form; the daylight remains uninterrupted. This is the proper season to visit the islands. The charm of these long evenings must be seen and felt to be appreciated.
