VERSES occasioned by seeing a GROTTO built by Nine Sisters
by Anonymous
So much this building entertains my sight, Nought but the builders can give more delight, In them the master-piece of Nature's shown, In this I see Art's master-piece in stone. O! Nature, Nature, thou hast conquer'd Art; She charms the sight alone, but you the heart.
