Yew-trees—grown till they form high walls—are cut and shaped in prim and perfect order, some like the walls of ancient Troy, some like steps of stairs. Little doors are opened through them, and passing in and out one walks on for a mile almost, until one loses one's way and grows puzzled how to extricate one's self from so charming a maze.

The oriel window at its farther end is lighted up, and from it can be seen a picture, living, real, that resembles fairy-land. "Miss Mona, come in; the tay will be cold, an' the rashers all spoiled, an' the masther's callin' for ye." "Ah! Walzes and polkas, you mean?" she says, in a puzzled tone..
