“So the young man took the end of the silken string in his left hand, and his gold-hiked sword, ready drawn from its scabbard, in the other, and trod boldly into the inscrutable labyrinth. How this labyrinth was built is more than I can tell you, but so cunningly contrived a mizmaze was never seen in the world, before nor since. There can be nothing else so intricate, unless it were the brain of a man like Dædalus, who planned it, or the heart of any ordinary man”
“"Not a bit of it," responded our friend. "They come along so fast that I was all in a mizmaze trying to keep track on 'em.[…]"”
