particularly comfortable hotel. / There are, indeed, many 

hotels, [Adverbial to "are" for^Note  the entertainment {of  tourists}

is the business {of the place}, [Adjectival to "place" which, 

[^{Note #1} as many travelers will remember,] is seated {upon 

the edge} {of a remarkably blue lake}-- a lake [Adjectival to "lake"

that it behooves every tourist to visit.]]] /  The shore {of 

the lake} presents an unbroken array {of establishments} {of this 

order}, {of every category}, {from the "grand hotel"} {of the newest 

fashion}, {with a chalk-white front, a hundred balconies, and a dozen

flags} flying {from its roof}, {to the little Swiss pension} {of an elder 

day}, {with its name} inscribed {in German-looking lettering} {upon

a pink or yellow wall} and {an awkward summerhouse} {in the angle}

{of the garden}. /  One {of the hotels} {at Vevey}, however, is

famous, even classical, being distinguished {from many} {of its

upstart neighbors} {by an air} both {of luxury} and {of maturity}. / {In

this region}, {in the month} {of June}, American travelers are

extremely numerous; /  it may be said, indeed, [^{Note #2} that

Vevey assumes {at this period} some {of the characteristics} {of 

an American watering place}.] /  There are sights and sounds

[Adjectival to "sights" and "sounds" which evoke a vision, an

echo, {of Newport and Saratoga}.] /  There is a flitting hither

and thither {of "stylish" young girls}, a rustling {of muslin 

flounces}, a rattle {of dance music} {in the morning hours},

a sound {of high-pitched voices} {at all times}. /  You

receive an impression {of these things} {at the excellent

inn} {of the "Trois Couronnes"}and are transported {in fancy}

{to the Ocean House} or {to Congress Hall}. / But^Note {at the 

"Trois Couronnes}," [^{Note #3} it must be added,] there are

other features [Adjectival to "features" that are much {at variance}

{with these suggestions}: neat German waiters, [Adjectival to "waiters"

who look like secretaries {of legation}];^{Note #4} Russian

princesses sitting {in the garden}; little Polish boys walking about

held {by the hand}, {with their governors}; a view {of the sunny

crest} {of  the Dent du Midi} and {the picturesque towers} {of the 

Castle} {of Chillon}.] /
