of his ancient reign. That painter
has studied the aspect of the Old Forlorn, and has shown it more than
once on bits of canvass not a foot long; and such pictures will survive
after the Ghost of the Genius has bade farewell to the ruined solitudes
he had haunted ever since the flood, or been laid beneath the yet
unprofaned Green-Brae, above the Brother Loch, whence we devoutly trust
he will re-issue, though ages may have to elapse, to see all his
quagmires in their primeval glory, and all his hags more hideously
beautiful, as they yawn back again into their former selves, frowning
over the burial in their bottoms of all the harvests that had dared to
ripen above their heads.
