u.l. printed: THE GRAND CANYON is not a mere narrow \ frowning gash of incredible depth, but a broad \ underworld that reaches to the uttermost horizon \ and seems as vast as the earth itself, studded with \ immeasurable pyramidal mountains of massive \ bulk hewn from gaudiest rockstrata that barely lift \ the cones and turrets of their crests to the level of \ the eye, and banded over all with vivid colors of \ transparent brilliancy that are harmonized ny \ atmosphere and refraction to a marvelous delicacy.
