Scope and Content
Stirling, D. M. The beauties of the shore. Exeter: W. Roberts, 1838. pp. 135-6.There is something eminently interesting in the distinguishing characteristics of this place; every object is symbolical of greatness: the beautiful gardens, interspersed with fish-ponds and ornamental statuary; the extent of the park, decorated with venerable groves of beech, elm, and oak, under whose ample and umbrageous foliage, the deer feed in numerous squadrons; together with the other innumerable creations and blandishments, which nature and art has produced here, all tend to furnish the mind with sentiments of the sublimest conception.
