From Brought the road, if I may give it 

 that name, to AJkrig^ lies over one conti- 

 nued range of mountains, here called moors. 

 The cultivated vallies are too inconliderable 

 to deferve a mention. Moft of thefe fifteen 

 miles, however dreadful the road, are tradts 

 of very improveable land ; if a good turn- 

 pike road was made from AJkrig to Bi-oughy 

 the firft great ftep to cultivation would be 

 over ; for it is almoft impoffible to improve 

 a country with fpirit, the roads of which 

 are impaflable. It is extremely melancholy 

 to view fuch tra(fts of land that are indif- 

 putably capable of yielding many beneficial 

 crops, remaining totally wafte ; while iiv 

 many parts of the kingdom farms are fo 



to captivate the moft languid obferver. A 

 glorious range of mountains, valleys, beautiful 

 inclofures, hanging woods ; precipices, torrents, 



rocks, ftreams, and cafcades. The whole 



line is a perpetual hill and dale, thickly ftrewed 

 with all thefe romantic glories — you, literally 

 fpeaking, do not move an hundred yards without 



being ftruck with continual waterfalls. 



A morning's ride well worth a journey of tl 

 thoufand miles to travel.—
