We're on the way southwards down the east coast with William Gell in his 1906 poem, Mannin Veg Veen : A Poetical Sketch of the Isle of Man. As he tells us, we'll be coming back to some of the places barely mentioned in this quick coastal tour which has made up Cantos I and II of his poem, with seven more to come. We arrive back in Douglas Bay now.

In a translation into Manx of the stories of the Brothers Grimm, we're on the road home with Hans after seven years' employment. His journey home is not without incident, but rather like Dr Pangloss in Candide, Hans is ever the optimist, feeling that things keep turning out for the best.
