The truth about Kashi 



ie truth about Kashmir may be learned by combining the alluring accounts given by 

 the poets with the scandalous tales of the boatmen. The hanjis, or boatmen, are almost 

 amphibious ; but, like Jack ashore, they lose something of their picturesqueness and distinctive 

 character when thev reach drv land.
