Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from A Book of the Severn From high Plinlimmon´s shaggy side Three streams in three directions glide; To thousands at their mouth who tarry, Honey, gold and mead they carry. Flow also from Plinlimmon high Three streams of generosity; The first a noble stream indeed Like rills of Mona, run with mead; The second bears from vineyards thick Wine to the feeble and the sick; The third till time shall be no more Mingled with gold shall silver pour. - Lewis Glyncothi (trans). There is a lonesome spot, high perched upon the eastern shoulder of many-headed old Plinlimmon, where in the calm that so often succeeds the storm in these wild uplands you may hear a strange duet. A melody as old, to be sure, as the eternal hills whose fountains have sung it since they came up out of the ocean in the night of time and fell, piping their cradle songs, into the waste of waters beneath which the lower hills and valleys of wild Wales still lay submerged. Nowhere else within my knowledge do two great rivers actually mingle their infant voices, uniting as it were in flood time to break the silence of a still primeval solitude.
