 trachytic lavas and basalts. A little above the 

 bathing-place, at the back of the hotel, the sides of 

 the brook rose into steep wooded precipices one or

The country about, although looking like a plain 

 when seen from the neighbouring mountains, is 

 abruptly undulating, with steep eminences in many 

 places, and is furrowed by small ravines formed by 

 the many brooks which traverse it, and which 

 eventually join to form the river Kediri.
