It has some formidable rivals 1 The true poetry of nature and of the then newly discovered Alps, may rather be sought in Coleridge's Hymn to Mont Blanc; in Shelley's Prometheus (Act II. Sc. 3), and above all in the Sixth Book of the Prelude, with all the absurd, pleasing, trivial realism of the walking tour, l...ighted by oc- casional gleams of solemn grandeur wherein the POETRY AND REBELLION 123 mountains are revealed as the symbol of something too great for our comprehension.
