Daniel Defoe 
From London to Land’s End / and Two Letters from the ‘Journey through England by a Gentleman’ 

This letter will divide the weighty task, and consequently make it sit lighter on the memory, be pleasanter to the reader, and make my progress the more regular: I shall therefore take in Hampton Court and Windsor in this journey; the first at my setting out, and the last at my return, and the rest as their situation demands.
