Crossed
the
Clyde
not
far
from
Hamilton,
and
had
the
river
for
some
miles
at
a
distance
from
us,
on
our
left;
but
after
having
gone,
it
might
be,
three
miles,
we
came
to
a
porter's
lodge
on
the
left
side
of
the
road,
where
we
were
to
turn
to
Bothwell
Castle,
which
is
in
Lord
Douglas's
grounds.
The
woman
who
keeps
the
gate
brought
us
a
book,
in
which
we
wrote
down
our
names.
Went
about
half
a
mile
before
we
came
to
the
pleasure-grounds.
Came
to
a
large
range
of
stables,
where
we
were
to
leave
the
car;
but
there
was
no
one
to
unyoke
the
horse,
so
William
was
obliged
to
do
it
himself,
a
task
which
he
performed
very
awkwardly,
being
then
new
to
it.
We
saw
the
ruined
castle
embosomed
in
trees,
passed
the
house,
and
soon
found
ourselves
on
the
edge
of
a
steep
brow
immediately
above
and
overlooking
the
course
of
the
river
Clyde
through
a
deep
hollow
between
woods
and
green
steeps.
We
had
approached
at
right
angles
from
the
main
road
to
the
place
over
a
flat,
and
had
seen
nothing
before
us
but
a
nearly
level
country
terminated
by
distant
slopes,
the
Clyde
hiding
himself
in
his
deep
bed.
It
was
exceedingly
delightful
to
come
thus
unexpectedly
upon
such
a
beautiful
region.
