LET us now go to Switzerland, and see its wonderful mountains, whose steep, rocky sides are covered with trees. We will climb up to the fields of snow, and then make our way down to the grassy valleys, with their countless streams and rivulets, impetuously rushing to lose themselves in the sea.

The clouds hang above them like thick mists over the mountains, andthe sun's rays make their way through the openings between the clouds to where the brown houses lie spread, lighting up some chance spot with a vivid green.
