Daniel o'Connell y el renacimiento de la vida nacional en Irlanda . , lo separa del puerto de Ballinskelligs. Esparcidos sobre ella se encuentran las ruinas de la antigua abadía que da su nombre a la bahía de Httle y la propia casa, que contiene las tumbas de muchos de los antepasados de OConnells. Para astranger el paisaje en el lado de la tierra—un repliegue jumble alternando con el bog—desprovisto de árboles, excusando un pequeño chubbery plantado por el mismo OConnell, presenta una perspectiva bastante lúgubre ; pero para OConnellit fue endezado por los recuerdos más tenderosos de la infancia, y el turista que tomará el problemático ascenso Coomakis

To astranger the scenery on the land side—a jumble ofrock alternating with bog—devoid of trees, exceptfor a small shrubbery planted by OConnell himself, presents a rather dreary prospect ; but to OConnellit was endeared by the tenderest recollections of hischildhood, and the tourist who will take the troubleto ascend Coomakista, when the early rays of thesun are flooding the ocean and lighting up thedistant Skelligs, will admit that the praise he lav-ished on it is not wholly undeserved. With the enthusiasm of a new proprietor, OCon-nell no sooner found himself installed at Darrynanethan he began altering, planting, and building in orderto make the place more commodious and agreeablefor his wife and family.
