162 COPENHAGEN. Chap. X.
We now approach the end of our stroll. Look on
that little quartier, consisting of twelve streets of
toybox houses, ranged in symmetrical regularity, the
domicile and pépiniëre of Denmark’s navy, founded by
Christian IV., who loved and protected his sailors.
Since the reign of that monarch there they dwell, live,
and flourish, as the crowds of small boys, fighting,
wrestling, and playing in the Grønlandgade, to which
we now descend, will fully testify.
My task as cicerone is at an end: you have seen all—
perhaps you will say, too much ; at any rate, you have
visited in a desultory manner everything that is to be
viewed, admired, and condemned in the city of
Copenhagen.
