Upon these terraces, and particularly upon the lower ones, were groups and clusters of flowerlike buildings, and he distinguished109 paths and steps and pools of water as if the whole place were a garden.
The aeroplanes made an easy landing on a turfy expanse. Close at hand was a graceful110 chalet that ran out from the shores of the lake over the water, and afforded mooring111 to a flotilla of gaily112 coloured boats. . . .
It was Father Amerton who had drawn113 Mr. Barnstaple’s attention to the absence of villages. He now remarked that there was no church in sight and that nowhere had they seen any spires114 or belfries. But Mr. Barnstaple thought that some of the smaller buildings might be temples or shrines115. 「Religion may take different forms here,」 he said.
「And how few babies or little children are visible!」 Father Amerton remarked. 「Nowhere have I seen a mother with her child.」

「Not in the sense that they exercise any arbitrary will,」 said Urthred. 「They deal with general relations, that is all. But they rank no higher, they have no more precedence on that account than a philosopher has over a scientific specialist.」
「This is a republic indeed!」 said Mr. Burleigh. 「But how it works and how it came about I cannot imagine. Your state is probably a highly socialistic one?」
「You live still in a world in which nearly everything except the air, the high roads, the high seas and the wilderness61 is privately62 owned?」
