A new translation exercise

When my great-great-grandfather was a young man, he travelled
      out into the world. First he went west; there was only sand
      there. Then he went north; there was only snow there. Then he
      went east; there the mountains were too high and
      great-great-grandfather couldn't climb them. At last he decided
      to travel south, on foot, on horseback, by cart and by boat. In
      the south he saw the largest city in all the world.
