Symzonia: Voyage of Discovery
·
Captain Adam Seaborn
85
It
appeared
to
me
to
be
a
very
troublesome
form
of
government,
which
required
the
assemblage
once
in
four
years
of
more
than
half
the
men
of
the
nation.
But
I
found
this
to
be
a
great
mistake.
Surui
assumed
me,
that
the
labour
necessary
to
procure
all
the
essential
comforts
and
rational
embellishments
of
life,
in
this
fruitful
country,
and
with
the
temperate
habits
of
the
people,
required
but
a
small
proportion
of
the
labour
which
could
be
performed;
that
there
was
abundant
leisure
for
an
annual
assemblage
of
all
the
people,
without
any
detriment
to
the
business
of
society;
and
that
every
member
of
it
enjoyed
an
abundance
of
the
comforts
of
life,
without
excessive
or
constant
labour.
So
far
was
the
quadrennial
assembly
of
the
worthies
from
being
regarded
as
an
evil,
that
the
arrival
of
the
time
of
its
occurrence
was
hailed
as
a
season
of
great
enjoyment,
instruction,
and
usefulness.
The
numerous
inlets
of
the
sea,
which
intersected
this
beautiful
country
in
every
direction,
rendered
travelling
very
easy
and
expeditious;
so
that
not
only
the
Worthies,
but
also
such
of
their
families
as
were
of
sufficient
age
to
mingle
with
society,
repaired
to
the
district
of
the
assembly,
in
which
none
but
the
Good,
the
Wise,
and
the
Useful,
were
permitted
to
reside.--In
the
vessels
in
which
they
are
conveyed,
they
take
a
sufficient
quantity
of
substantial
provisions
for
their
own
consumption,
or
to
exchange
for
such
as
they
may
prefer
during
their
visit.
They
also
carry
tents,
in
which
such
as
cannot
be
accommodated
in
the
houses
of
their
friends
reside,
during
their
stay.
