A beautiful eminence of the most regular round shape, and clothed with copsewood of hazels, mountain-ash, and dwarf-oak, intermixed with a few magnificent old trees, which, rising above the underwood, exposed their forked and bared branches to the silver moonshine, seemed to protect the sources from which the river sprung.
Or could she her young bosom just expanding to receive the god of love fail to acknowledge the nearest form as his image? Painfully improbable! It was therefore with feelings of no very pleasant kind that I sought around for some souvenir. The remains of a fire, a little apart from the rest, near the edge of a piece of copsewood, drew my attention.
It opened on a sunk road running between the park wall and a copsewood containing some abandoned quarries. M. Filleul stooped forward: the dust of the road bore marks of anti-skid pneumatic tires. Raymonde and Victor remembered that, after the shot, they had seemed to hear the throb of a motor-car. The magistrate suggested: "The man must have joined his confederates." "Impossible!" cried Victor.
At present it boasts of but little cultivation, and a scattered population, inhabiting a few hamlets, 5,500 feet above the sea: beautiful lanes and paths wind everywhere over the gentle slopes, and through the copsewood that has replaced the timber-trees of a former period.
At first I could discover no entrance; walking round, however, to the northern side, I found a wide and lofty gateway with a tower above it, similar to those at the angles of the wall; on this side the ground sloped gently down towards the bog, which was here skirted by an abundant growth of copsewood, and a few evergreen oaks.
But you oh, you! how can you be happy eneugh! never till ye get to heaven, where a'body is as gude as yoursell. Jeanie, if I live and thrive, ye shall hear of me if not, just forget that sic a creature ever lived to vex ye fare ye weel fare fare ye weel!" She tore herself from her sister's arms rejoined her husband they plunged into the copsewood, and she saw them no more.
Hie away, hie away, Over bank and over brae, Where the copsewood is the greenest, Where the fountains glisten sheenest, Where the lady-fern grows strongest, Where the morning dew lies longest, Where the black-cock sweetest sips it, Where the fairy latest trips it. Hie to haunts right seldom seen, Lovely, lonesome, cool, and green, Over bank and over brae, Hie away, hie away.
I seldom awoke without finding my pillow wet with tears. The glory of May was upon the earth of an English May. The woods were bursting into leaf, the meadows and hedge-rows were flushed with flowers, and every grove and copsewood echoed to the warblings of birds and the humming of bees. To leave England at all was dreadful to leave her at such a season was doubly so.
"Hoot! mon; that was na wise-like. But after a' ye're ony a bairn. Here, Tam, ye'd better gang up by the Stank burn an' keep a look-oot ower the hills, an' I'll start him." Thus advised, the second constable diverged to the right, and, plunging into the copsewood, was instantly out of sight. Soon afterwards, Willie came to the place where he had met the gypsy.
That day and the next I wandered through a silent country of heathy and ferny landes, a region of granite boulders, holly, and broom, of copsewood and great chestnut trees; a region of broad light, and fresh breezes and wide horizons. I visited the Pierres Jaunâtres. I stood at sunset on the platform of Toulx Ste.
