Uprear'd this chapel in this land.

Full well I know so fine a sight,

Was never raised by mortal wight."

Of its majesty he speaks in another measure:—

"Stay, curious traveller, and pass not by

Until this festive pile astound thine eye.

Whole rocks on rocks, with iron join'd, survey;

And oaks with oaks that interfitted lie;

This mighty pile that keeps the winds at bay,

And doth the lightning and the storm defy,
