XV.

Beneath the boundary mountain's brow
Where winter smites the realms below,
163

Crests the gigantic peaks with frost,
Or veils in night of vapours lost,
With hideous chasm the pass divides,
And cleaves with floods its shatter'd sides,
Nature had sweetly form'd a scene
That bloom'd the snow-capt rocks between,
And shelt'ring from each bitter blast
O'er it perpetual verdure cast.
