TOURIST IN SPAIN.

ANDALUSIA.

BY THOMAS ROSCOE.

ILLUSTRATED FROM DRAWINGS

BY

DAVID ROBERTS.

Religion's gems can ne'er adorn
The flimsy robe by pleasure worn ;
Its feeble texture soon would tear,
And give those jewels to the air.

Thrice happy they who seek th' abode
Of peace and pleasure in their God!
Who spurn the world, its joys despise,
And grasp at bliss beyond the skies!
IBRAHIM BEN ADHAM.

MAY IT PLEASE YOUR MAJESTY,

As a British Artist, fully sensible of the tendency of a judicious cultivation of the Fine Arts to refine the taste of individuals, and to civilize mankind; gratified, therefore, on all occasions, when the patronage of the noble and exalted in station is bestowed on those Arts and their professors; and now especially proud that such patronage should be extended to so humble an individual as myself; I venture, with Your Majesty's gracious Permission, to dedicate to Your Majesty this Volume of the LANDSCAPE ANNUAL, comprising Architectural and other Illustrations of a romantic and chivalrous portion of Spain.

With profound respect and gratitude

I have the honour to be

YOUR MAJESTY'S

Obedient and devoted servant,

DAVID ROBERTS.
