"Here is the capital of an ancient, independent and heroic nation, abounding in buildings ennobled by the memory of illustrious inhabitants. Above all, here is all the sublimity of situation and scenery - mountains near and far off - rocks and glens - and the sea itself, almost within hearing of its waves." -- John Gibson Lockhart Image
