I used to wonder as a child how the mere name Paris could denote so many different things,
so many streets and squares, so many gardens, houses, roofs, chimneys,
and above it all the shifting, insubstantial sky that crowns our city;
and the more I thought about it, the more astonishing it seemed to me
that so vast a city could fit into so short a name.
