Asia and America; but perhaps had bet
ter first mention some Of those of our
own country. The highest mountain in
the British Isles is Ben Nevis, in Scotland,
being something more than 1000 feet above
the sea, or about four-fifths Of mile
Now,~if you can imagine twenty church
spires piled up one upon another, you will
form some notion Of the height Of Ben Ne
Wis. Snowden, Cader Idris, and Penman-
mawr, are the loftiest mountains in Wales.


In ascending them, and Skiddaw, in Cum
berland, was much struck with their great
height and gigantic bulk, not having then
witnessed the stupendous mountains of
other countries. In ascending mountain
we are not always affected in proportion to
its height. When in grateful mood, we
have frequently more enjoyment in climbing
to the top Of acommon hill, than in visiting
the summit of the highest mountain, if the
mind is not alive to the surrounding subli-
nifty. / remember, on one occasion, when
on the top of Malvern Hills, being so struck
with the beautiful appearance Of the hea-
vens and earth, that | suddenly fell on my
knees and burst into tears. The words and
works Of the Most High declared both his
goodness and his glory.


ITO be concluded.
