Speeches on India: Delivered by Lord Curzon of Kedleston, Viceroy and Governor-General of India, While in England in July August, 1904 (Classic Reprint) - Brossura
Excerpt from Speeches on India: Delivered by Lord Curzon of Kedleston, Viceroy and Governor-General of India, While in England in July August, 1904
By a law which was designed for different times, and which, in my opinion, is now obsolete, no Viceroy of India can leave India for England, whatever the urgency, public or private, without vacating his office and so it is that a man may be absent, as I have been, from his country for an unbroken period of five and a half years without sight or sound of home. During his long exile the weight and isolation of his great post tell heavily upon him. Fatigue of body and spirit often press him down; the volume of work that he has to discharge is such as no man who has not undertaken it can well imagine. You may judge, therefore, what a reward - I had almost said, what a tonic to body and soul - is such a reception as this to such a man; how his heart warms within him at the sympathetic recognition of his countrymen, and how fresh courage and spirit are infused into him to go forth again and renew his task.
