Excerpt from Sentimental Education: The Story of a Young Man
People rushed on board the vessel in frantic haste. The traffic was Obstructed by casks, cables, and baskets of linen. The sailors answered no questions. People jostled one another. Between the two paddle-boxes was a heap of parcels; the clamour was drowned in the loud hissing of the steam, which, making its way through the plates of Sheet-iron, encompassed every thing in a white mist, while the bell at the prow kept continuously ringing.
At last, the vessel drew away and the banks of the river, crowded with warehouses, timber-yards, and manufactories, opened out like two huge ribbons being unrolled.
