Deja Vu The slow gentle warmth Of vibrant figures Weaves a delicate etching On the back of my memory. I have been here before . -December ' 69 Xenephon THE VOYAGE All her life Miss Higgins had dreamt of making this voyage, and now finally the time had come. She had heard many stories of this land of plenty, where riches could be found in the streets, but she had never quite believed that someday she, the head-mistress of a most insignificant school in southern England, would be a witness to these wonders. She had been told that the people of this land had formed a new sort of society called superbia where they lived in the lap of luxury. She had visions of a marvellous Utopia, so wealthy that no man need go hungry, where the word misery was probably quite meaningless. Such were her thoughts as she sat on deck gazing at the horizon, overwhelmed perhaps by her dreams, but certainly very excited. For seven days she had been surrounded by nothing but the sky and the sea and she was yearning for the security of land. She knew that at seven o ' clock (only two hours to wait) they would enter the harbour and shortly after eight she imagined she would be setting foot on land again. Despite her efforts to control her emotions, she found herself continually glancing at her watch and peering incessantly in front of the boat, trying vainly to see over the horizon. And as she gazed, her imagination carried her away into wondrous dreams of affluence and luxury, of scientific achievement and miraculous inventions Her reveries were cut short when a strange dark object appeared on the horizon . She jumped to her feet, for it was more than just another boat, and focused on it with her binoculars. She found it to be a gigantic lighthouse construction. The first sign of civilization! A wave of excitement swept through her body as she felt a strong urge to shout Land ahoy! , but she caught herself just in time and sat back down in her deck-chair. Still in a bit of a tizzy at the thought of approaching land, she continued to look at the horizon. Straight ahead of the boat there was an amber haze that hung over the area of their destination . Miss Higgins took this to be a heavenly glow, a type of halo suspended above her dream- land. Extraordinary it was more than she had hoped for. She went up to stand in the bow of the boat to get a better view and looked at this incredible sight for quite some time with her binoculars.
