ranging from the boy and the river stood a mountain, but the boy was young and the river was small but the mountain was big.The thickly forested mountain hid the river, but the boy knew it was there and where it was and what it looked like; he had never seen river with his own eyes, but from the villagers he had heard of it, of the fish in its waters, of its rocks and currents and water-falls and it only remained for him to touch the water and feel it personally. He stood in front of his house on the hill opposite the mountain, and gazed across the valley, dreaming of the river. He was about twelve years old, a sturdy boy, with untidy black hair and shining black eyes; he had fine features and a clear brown skin, but his hands and feet were rough and scratched. He was barefooted; not because he couldn't afford shoes, but because he felt free in his bare feet, because he liked the feel of warm stones and cool grass, because not wearing shoes saved him the trouble of taking them off.
