One secret I will be good-natured enough to make you master of-I am told it is very expensive, very troublesome, and sometimes attended with infinite discomfort, taking a boat on those lakes-now, I verily believe, that if on horseback, or in a jaunting-car, or gig, you take an excursion from Killarney town for ten miles along this new road towards Kenmare which I travelled, you will see Upper, Middle, and Lower Lake, more to your satisfaction than if you went in a boat. I remained but one day at Killarney—business not pleasure brought me to be sure when business was done, I was not such a dull dolt as not to make the most of my time, and see Mucruss and Turk mountain, and Mangerton, and the Devil's Punch Bowl. In a word, Mr. Reader, even suppose you were at the Lakes—even suppose you are young and active, and made the most of your time, yet I am bold to say, that I saw as much in four hours as you could, or ever will do in the same space of time.
