    'They can be heard, sometimes, the moutains, they can be heard as they shift closer; a deep, low rumble from within the earth followed by a slow and persistent grinding, the hunger pangs of an immeasurable beast in subterranean slumber embossing its vast shape on the landscape, spurnose, mountainnipple, cliffrib, immense, recumbent and green.'

    From A Personal Guide to West Wales , anonymous authorship, privatley printed, p. 70
