Excerpt from Peter Pilgrim, or a Rambler's Recollections, Vol. 2 of 2
Vol. N. - 2the torrent. They lie confusedly along the verge Of the watery precipice, extending a distance of a hundred yards or more from the island, of which they seem to have formed originally a part - the ruins of a jutting pro montory long since washed away. The bridge - a low path of logs and planks, as is well known - gives access to many of these fragments: others again may be reached without such assistance, from the island: and the adventurous Spirit, tempted by the very wildness of the exploit, will often seek among them some convenient perch, where, poised perhaps over the tremendous gulf, with the flood on either side of him, shooting furiously by, he enjoys a spectacle Of unequalled mag nificence in itself, and to which the feelings inspired by the situation add double suhli mity.
