Behind are the abandoned baths.
The Baths of Leuk. This poem was conceived, and partly composed, in the valley going down from the foot of the Gemmi Pass towards the Rhone.
Glion? Ah! twenty years, it cuts.
Probably all who know the Vevey end of the Lake of Geneva will recollect Glion, the mountain village above the Castle of Chillon. Glion now has hotels, pensions, and villas; but twenty years ago it was hardly more than the huts of Avant opposite to it,—huts through which goes that beautiful path over the Col de Jaman, followed by so many foot-travellers on their way from Vevey to the Simmenthal and Thun.
And walls where Byron came.
Montbovon. See Byron’s Journal, in his “Works,” vol. iii. p. 258. The river Saane becomes the Sarine below Montbovon.

The illustrations for these volumes are deserving of especial mention, having been prepared at great expense, a large proportion of them engraved by Geo. T. Andrew, whose work on “The Cambridge Book of Poetry” adds so much to its value.
The paper, printing, and binding are also first-class in all respects, and no effort has been spared to make this series attractive and popular.
The price has also been fixed at a low rate, in order to insure the favor of the public; and it is hoped that this line of Poets will prove adapted to the wants of those desiring attractive books at popular prices.
