Description
My grandmother used to tell the story of Madam Rain without mentioning Mr. Wind; my uncle knew the history of Mr. Wind, though he never spoke of Madam Rain. But my nurse, who was a native of Brittany, had heard the two stories, and she jumbled them together into one, more complete and more wonderful than either taken alone.
Now I went myself to Brittany a long time ago, and, following the example of McPherson, I collected all that was there related to me about Mr. Wind and Madam Rain, who are still frequent visitors in that part of the country. I will not say that I have added nothing to the unconnected recitals of the Breton peasants, because that would be telling an untruth; but I have added only what was necessary to link together the different events, and to supply passages that were entirely wanting.
