Fair fields; the whole island a garden; green hedges all round; neat lodges3, thick as white mice in the landscape; old oak woods, hale and hearty4 as ever; old temples buried in ivy5; old shrines6 of old heroes, deep buried in broad groves7 of bay trees; old rivers laden9 down with heavy-freighted canoes; humped hills, like droves of camels, piled up with harvests; every sign and token of a glorious abundance, every sign and token of generations of renown10. Rare sight! fine sight! none rarer, none finer in Mardi.
