The Hospice at Hampsfell (interior)
-
Description
"Verse on the Western wall - This Hospice as an open door, A like to welcome rich and poor; A roomy seat for young and old, Where they may screen them from the cold. Three windows that command a view, To North, to West and Southward too; A flight of steps requireth care, The roof will show a prospect rare: Mountain and vale you thence survey, The winding streams and noble bay; The sun at noon the shadow hides, Along the East and Western sides: A lengthened chain holds guard around, To keep the cattle from the ground; Kind reader freely take your pleasure, But do no mischief to my treasure."
