Acres thirty in all, good grass, own Mentula master;
Forty to plough; bare seas, arid or empty, the rest.
Poorly methinks might Croesus a man so sumptuous equal,
Counted in one rich park owner of all he can ask.

On to the farthest North, on to the boundary main.
Vastness is all that is here; yet Mentula reaches a vaster--
Man? not so; 'tis a vast mountainous ominous He.
