&c. Hutchinson's Tour. 164 NOTES FOR THE FRAGMENT. Note 3. (p. 109. ) Now maddening echoes from thy hills rebound. " Mr Hutchinson has admirably described the effect of the firing of cannon and sounding of horns on the lake " On discharging " one of these cannon, the report was reverberated from cliff to " cliff, and returned through every cave and valley, till the de- *' creasing tumult died away. The instant it had ceased, the " sound of every distant waterfall was heard, but the stillness " ...was momentary ; for it was interrupted by the returning echo, " like a peal of thunder flying from haunt to haunt, till once " more it gradually declined. Again the voice of waterfalls " possessed the interval, till the more distant thunder arose from " other mountains, and seemed to run its course in dreadful " speed. The music of the horns, " he says, " was repeated from every recess; here the swelling organ, there the bassoon " with clarionetts ; from the harsher sounding clifts, the cornet ; " from the wooded creeks among the caverns, the softened lute, " accompanied with the languishing strains of enamoured nymphs; " while, in the copse and grove, was still retained the music of '* the horns.
