Side 185 - Fresh pearls to their enamel gave, And the bellowing of the savage sea Greeted their safe escape to me. I wiped away the weeds and foam, I fetched my sea-born treasures home; But the poor, unsightly, noisome things Had left their beauty on the shore With the sun and the sand and the wild uproar.
Side 178 - A panorama more deplorably desolate no human imagination can conceive. To the right and left, as far as the eye could reach, there lay outstretched, like ramparts of the world, lines of...
Side 291 - At one point, ten thousand feet above the sea, a fearful bli22ard overtook them. The cold and wind seemed unendurable, even for an hour, but they endured them for three days.

"Sermons in stone" abound at every turn; and if, as the poet has affirmed, "an undevout...
Side 224 - Railroad Co. Not more than 50 feet from Liberty Cap rise the famous Hot Spring Terraces. They constitute a veritable mountain, covering at least 200 acres, the whole of which has been for centuries growing slowly through the agency of hot water issuing from the boiling springs.
