Book excerpt: Excerpt from Sketches in the Pyrenees, Vol. 2 of 2: With Some Remarks on Languedoc, Provence, and the Cornice Behind the village of Luz rises the lofty Bergoz, ale terminating in a pic famous for the View which it commands. It is a green mountain, too steep in most parts for habitation; but where the slopes are gentler, its broad flanks are dotted with granges, whose summer inhabitants have already forsaken them. Higher up, we found flocks and herds browsing their way downwards; and the sound of their bells, so far from jarring against the dead silence that otherwise prevailed, seemed to Or Bergons, as it is also called.
