Everyone has seen a hare, either crouched or running in the fields, or hanging dead in a poulterer's shop, or lastly pathetic, even dreadful-looking and in this form almost indistinguishable from a skinned cat, on the domestic table. But not many people have met a Mahatma, at least to their knowledge. Not many people know even who or what a Mahatma is.

By Sir Henry Rider Haggard, an English writer of adventure novels, the creator of the dashing adventurer Allan Quatermain, one of the great literary heroes of Britain's Victorian era.
