The Wonderful Adventures of Gutefundus

Once upon a time-it was four hundred years ago-the great Gutefundus, of blessed memory, made up his mind that he would go all over the world, and do good to everybody. A great part of the world as we know it, had not then been discovered, and there were not so many people in those times as there are now. But still it was something of an undertaking to go all over the world, and do good to everybody.

Nevertheless, Gutefundus resolved to do it.
