These
pigeons
,
Van
Baerle
said
to
himself
,
are
coming
from
Dort
,
and
consequently
may
return
there
.
By
fastening
a
little
note
to
the
wing
of
one
of
these
pigeons
,
one
might
have
a
chance
to
send
a
message
there
.
Then
,
after
a
few
moments
'
consideration
,
he
exclaimed
,
--
"
I
will
do
it
.
"
A
man
grows
very
patient
who
is
twenty-eight
years
of
age
,
and
condemned
to
a
prison
for
life
,
--
that
is
to
say
,
to
something
like
twenty-two
or
twenty-three
thousand
days
of
captivity
.
Van
Baerle
,
from
whose
thoughts
the
three
bulbs
were
never
absent
,
made
a
snare
for
catching
the
pigeons
,
baiting
the
birds
with
all
the
resources
of
his
kitchen
,
such
as
it
was
for
eight
slivers
(
sixpence
English
)
a
day
;
and
,
after
a
month
of
unsuccessful
attempts
,
he
at
last
caught
a
female
bird
.
It
cost
him
two
more
months
to
catch
a
male
bird
;
he
then
shut
them
up
together
,
and
having
about
the
beginning
of
the
year
1673
obtained
some
eggs
from
them
,
he
released
the
female
,
which
,
leaving
the
male
behind
to
hatch
the
eggs
in
her
stead
,
flew
joyously
to
Dort
,
with
the
note
under
her
wing
.
She
returned
in
the
evening
.
She
had
preserved
the
note
.
Thus
it
went
on
for
fifteen
days
,
at
first
to
the
disappointment
,
and
then
to
the
great
grief
,
of
Van
Baerle
.
On
the
sixteenth
day
,
at
last
,
she
came
back
without
it
.
Van
Baerle
had
addressed
it
to
his
nurse
,
the
old
Frisian
woman
;
and
implored
any
charitable
soul
who
might
find
it
to
convey
it
to
her
as
safely
and
as
speedily
as
possible
.
In
this
letter
there
was
a
little
note
enclosed
for
Rosa
.
