Excerpt from Peeps at Many Lands, Wales These peeps at Wales Will take us into a country busy With its various industries of coal-mining, slate-quarrying, and wool manufacture, yet one Which, in Spite of its modern developments and trade interests, has never lost the magic and glamour of an earlier age. Every country-town, almost every hill and mound in the district, has its legend, its romance, Which lives in the hearts of an intensely patriotic and imaginative people, and blends the past and the present into one. This is the reason Why, in these peeps at various Spots in Wales, we have often chosen those unknown to the tourist, but interesting to those Who care for the people as well as for the place, because of some legend or history that paints, as nothing else can do, their life in the days of old. Romance broods over all the spell of the Wizard Merlin has touched vale and hill; Arthur and his Round Table, though belonging originally to the sister-country of Brittany, has migrated hither and left his name and those of his Knights in every part of the land; Taliesin, the marvellous child-bard, still Sings beyond the mountain-peaks.
