"What's your objection to students?" we demanded; but there was no answer. It was only after a pause that the philosopher slowly began to speak, not addressing us directly, as it were, but rather some one in the distance: "So, my friend, even at midnight, even on the top of a lonely mountain, we shall not be alone; and you yourself are bringing a pack of mischief making students along with you, although you well know that I am only too glad to get out of the way of _hoc genus omne_. WHAT'S YOUR OBJECTION TO STUDENTS WE DEMANDED BUT THERE WAS NO ANSWER IT WAS ONLY AFTER A PAUSE THAT THE PHILOSOPHER SLOWLY BEGAN TO SPEAK NOT ADDRESSING US DIRECTLY AS IT WERE BUT RATHER SOME ONE IN THE DISTANCE SO MY FRIEND EVEN AT MIDNIGHT EVEN ON THE TOP OF A LONELY MOUNTAIN WE SHALL NOT BE ALONE AND YOU YOURSELF ARE BRINGING A PACK OF MISCHIEF MAKING STUDENTS ALONG WITH YOU ALTHOUGH YOU WELL KNOW THAT I AM ONLY TOO GLAD TO GET OUT OF THE WAY OF HOC GENUS OMNE
s this little spot, taking care, however, not to go too quickly for the philosopher's comfort. The night was pitch dark, and we seemed to find our way by instinct rather than by clearly distinguishing the path, as we walked down with the philosopher in the middle. We had scarcely reached our side of the river when a broad and fiery, yet dull and uncertain light shot up, which plainly came from the opposite side of the Rhine. "Those are torches," I cried, "there is nothing surer than that my comrades from Bonn are over yonder, and that your friend must be with them. It is they who sang that peculiar song, and they have doubtless accompanied your friend here. See! Listen! They are putting off in little boats. The whole torchlight procession will have arrived here in less than half an hour." The philosopher jumped back. "What do you say?" he ejaculated, "your comrades from Bonn--students--can my friend have come here with _students_?" This question, uttered almost wrathfully, provoked us. EE TOPS WE THEREFORE SET OFF HASTILY TOWARDS THIS LITTLE SPOT TAKING CARE HOWEVER NOT TO GO TOO QUICKLY FOR THE PHILOSOPHER'S COMFORT THE NIGHT WAS PITCH DARK AND WE SEEMED TO FIND OUR WAY BY INSTINCT RATHER THAN BY CLEARLY DISTINGUISHING THE PATH AS WE WALKED DOWN WITH THE PHILOSOPHER IN THE MIDDLE WE HAD SCARCELY REACHED OUR SIDE OF THE RIVER WHEN A BROAD AND FIERY YET DULL AND UNCERTAIN LIGHT SHOT UP WHICH PLAINLY CAME FROM THE OPPOSITE SIDE OF RHINE THOSE ARE TORCHES I CRIED THERE'S NOTHING SURER THAN THAT MY COMRADES FROM BONN ARE OVER YONDER AND THAT YOUR FRIEND MUST BE WITH THEM IT IS THEY WHO SANG THAT PECULIAR SONG AND THEY HAVE DOUBTLESS ACCOMPANIED YOUR FRIEND HERE SEE LISTEN THEY ARE PUTTING OFF IN LITTLE BOATS THE WHOLE TORCHLIGHT PROCESSION WILL HAVE ARRIVED HERE IN LESS THAN HALF AN HOUR THE PHILOSOPHER JUMPED BACK WHAT DID YOU SAY HE EJACULATED YOUR COMRADES FROM BONN STUDENTS CAN MY FRIEND HAVE COME HERE WITH STUDENTS THIS QUESTION UTTERED ALMOST WRATHFULLY PROVOKED US
