cairns, its rushing streams, and contrasted scenery. 
" Dartmoor ! thou wast to us in childhood's hour 
A wild and wondrous region. Day by day 
Arose upon our youthful eye thy belt 
Of hills mysterious, shadowy, clasping all 
The green and cheerful landscape, sweetly spread 
Around our haunts; and with a stern delight 
We gazed on thee. How often on the speech. t 
Of thy half-savage peasant have we hung, 
To hear of rock-crown'd heights, on which the cloud 
For ever rests, and wilds stupendous swept 
By mightiest storms ; of glen, and gorge, and cliff 
Terrific, beetling o'er the stone-strew'd vale : 
And giant masses, by the midnight flash 
Struck from the mountain's lofty brow, and hurl'd 
Into the foaming torrents !"
