A TOUR ROUND NORTH WALES. *53 



Dol-y-Melynllyn fall. It is a double 

 fell, about fixty feet high, and the water 

 foams with a thundering noife amongft the 

 black rocks down which it is thrown. 

 Thefe rocks give to the fcene a fingular 

 appearance, from their being in many places 

 covered with a pure white lichen. The 

 trees on one fide of the ftream had been 

 lately cut down, but the lively and varied 

 green of thofe on the other, formed an 

 elegant contrail to the almofl jet black 

 rocks with which they were intermixed. 

 The torrent rolls into a fmall deep bafon, 

 from whence it dames itfelf along it's rug- 

 ged channel. Mr. Maddocks has been at 

 the expence of making a very good foot- 

 path, both to the bottom and upper part 

 of this fall, giving to the traveller, every 

 pomble means of feeing it to advantage. 



About a mile farther I turned to the 



right, to fee the other two which are litu- 



ated within a few hundred yards of each 



G g 3 other.
