Text Appearing Before Image:
ng the mercilesswreck of gray annihilation, looking out far over the tree topsupon the vast ocean beyond, unspeakably weird in their mournfulsolitude, unutterably sad in their voiceless silence and irremediabledecay. So they stand there, as Cook saw them from the deck ofhis vessel, off Cape Moreton, 120 years ago; as Flinders saw thembeyond a period of 91 years ; as the wild sons of the pathless,woods beheld them far back across the old dim centuries in timeslong buried in oblivion ; and as the stars alone shall see them farhence, when— Sheer to the lowest gulf each peak is hurledThe last sad wreck of a devoted world. The wild savages who roamed the pathless forest and sang theirpeace songs and war songs beneath the shadows of those grey sand-stone rocks have vanished for ever, bequeathing to us as their lastlegacy only the names of those immortal rock sculptures from thestudio of mighty Nature—Beerwah and Beerburrum, Coonowrin,.Toomboomboodlum, Teeborcaccan, and Mikateeboomalgri!
