three bridges of sighs. of sighs

Venice. This is the "real thing". Prisoners used to be led from the Doge's Palace on the left to the prison cells on the right. And they let out the last audible noises on the way.












fourteen said"On your way to prison, if you try
hard enough, you can see who took the picture above-"
(his picture, too)

surly enough:

i looked up the bridge of sighs，
startled by a pair of sth，dark and wicked，
through the grids of no lights.
I blinked； the shutter clicked.







Oxford, UK. In the Hertford College.
Dean introduced its former student, famous poet John Donne.

"No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent, a part of the main. If a clod be washed away by the sea, Europe is the less, as well as if promontory were, as well as if a manor of thy friend's or of thine own were. Any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in mankind; and therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; it tolls for thee." - John Donne




Cambridge, UK. On the river Cam. that's at the
