 itlclf J and then, almofl in a moment, on a fudden 

 turn of the road, appeared the bridge, thrown over 

 the chafm. Beneath it was the rugged and preci- 

 pitous bed of the river, where, amongft immenfe 

 maifes and huge fragments of rock, the dream 

 foamed with the mofl violent impetuouiity. The 

 tranfition to this romantic fcene was fo momentary, 

 as to feem almofl the efFecl of magic. The cataraft 

 is not very lofty, but from its being directly under 

 the bridge, where the foam and fpray was feen 

 dafhing among the dark oppofmg rocks, and having 

 the addition of pendant foliage from each fide, a 

 fcene was formed altogether fmely pi6turefque and 

 elegant. The bridge reds on two nearly perpendi- 

 cular rocks, and appears to be at lead fifty feet 

 above the bed of the dream. — The view from thence 

 dowa the hollow was grand and tremendous.
