Excerpt from Romance and Teutonic Switzerland, Vol. 2 of 2: Teutonic Switzerland
How quickly you feel yourself to be in Switzerland, when the train draws into Basel, coming from Germany!
It is first the change in the voices of the conductors. The Swiss tones seem deeply placed and guttural; but in rising into the mouth, one would say they must strike against some steel sounding-board, that gives them their strange, metallic ring.
