POETRY.

Y WYDDFA.

(THE SUMMIT OF SNOWDON.)

" LIB Place of Presence !" Viewless phantoms crowd

In mist and cloud ; And in deep chasm and dark abyss beneath Hides dreadful Death.

Not his, nor theirs, the presence, nor the place ;— Close to the face Of Heaven we stand, and, more in love than fear, Feel God is here. P. W. B.
