Instruction for Question Nos. 21 to 25. Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions that follow.
Travel, in the younger sort, is a part of education, in the elder, a part of experience. He that travelleth into a country, before he hath some entrance into the language, goeth to school; and not to travel. That young men travel under soine tutor or grave servant, I allow well; so that he be such a one that hath the language, and hath been in the country before; whereby he may be able to tell them what things are worthy to be seen in the country, where they go, what acquaintances they are to seek, what exercises or discipline the place yieldeth; for else young men shall go hooded and look abroad little. It is a strange thing, that in sea voyages, where there is nothing to be seen but sky and sea, men should make diaries; but in land travel, where in so much is to be observed, for the most part they omit it; as if chance were Pitter to be registered than observation; let diaries, therefore, be brought in use.
