“Nere Breaknoke Towne, there is a mountaine hye,
Which shewes so huge, it is full hard to clime.
The mountaine seemes so monstrous to the eye,
Yet thousands doe repayre to that sometime.
And they that stand right on the top shal see
A wonder great, as people doe report;
Which common brute and saying true may bee,
But since, in deede, I did not there resort,
I write no more, then world will witnesse well.”
From the Brecknock Beacons there is a truly remarkable view; and for those unable or unwilling to climb, there is the sight of the mountains themselves.
