addition The flow of talk /addition was not lively for who could be communicative after a long drive in India, and in May. Our topics were dusty roads, cool houses, the reviving climate of the Decan (Which seemed from all accounts to be a kind of paradise), healthy and unhealthy note unclear /note stations, and the common Monsoon: I heard Mrs. S. could not come to the reception as she was suffering from a underline coup de vent /underline. occasioned by sleeping with her window open when the wind deletion e /deletion was in the east; of one gentleman just recovering from the Scinde fever, and of another individual who was still weak from the effects of a jungle fever. How could I help thinking of the person who, on my arrival in India had said to me when speaking of the climate, "Ah, alive-to-day, dead to-morrow."

But Lady Falkland was not to be discouraged by these first impressions, and deletion inspired /deletion addition intent /addition like her brother, deletion by a desire to /deletion addition upon /addition learning all addition that /addition she could about the country, she used to set out on long tours in the Presidency, accompanied by an aide-de-camp, and her maid. She writes,

Sight-seeing in India is very fatiguing. The early sun I found very overpowering; it is impossible to go out in the middle of the day, unless one is protected in a carriage or a palanquin; the afternoons are so short, and it is so hot until late in the day-the sun keeping up its strength to the last- that it requires some resolution, and a good deal of health and strength to overcome all these drawbacks. Fortunately I had all three, and fancied I could set the sun at defiance; and though I had one underline coup de soleil /underline during my residence in India, I never learnt prudence. Had I been as prudent as I ought to have been, I should have seen nothing.
