PART II.
THE ALPS.
These mountains, which are permanently located in Switzerland, and
favorably mentioned in all the geographies, are justly admired by
tourists for their grandeur, natural beauty, and good hotel
accommodations.
This is a view at sunrise, by one of the early painters. Everything is
up, but Mont Blanc is up more than his neighbors. The whole landscape is
bathed in the golden glories of the orb of day. A bath in the morning is
invigorating indeed.
These Peaks are clustered around in silent majesty. It looks as though
the entire PEAK family had come here and settled. These snow-capped
summits, wild ravines, mountain torrents, and the series of crags which
WILLIAM TELL was in the habit of addressing, are truly soul-inspiring.
Here is a guide with his party. These guides are well-trained men, who
never bolt, but always go with their party--the ultramontane. They are
of high birth, and descended from the best Alpen Stock.
No one should pass the season in Switzerland without seeing these
mountains.
