It confronted the town which lay about one mile and a half off, right across a wide, romantic, heavily-wooded ravine. The banks of this gap sloped softly and pleasantly into a plain of meadows and two or three farms whose dyes of roof and cattle enriched the verdure; and down there ran a river singing in measures of music as it flowed into the Harbour and mingled its bright water with the brine of the deep beyond.,Most obliging and sweet in their way,,“O mother, how can there be joy if life is all work and never any fun?” He took her hand and pressed it against his cheek.，"Did it, Billy, did it?
