A LEGEND OF KESWICK.

Mark yon altar

... See this wide circus

Skirted with unhewn stone; they awe my soul,

As if the very Genius of the place

Himself appeared, and with terrific tread

Stalked through his drear domain....

Know that thou stand'st on consecrated ground--

The mighty pile of magic-planted rocks,

Thus ranged in mystic order, marks the place

Where but at times of holiest festival

The Druid led his train.
