Number 34. This is the place where Mary Robinson (sometimes called the beauty of Buttermere) for some years made a considerable advantage of public curiosity. She was a fine girl when fourteen, and a most interesting one at sixteen; what she was between that age and twenty-four is not known to the writer; but at the latter period many were disappointed, and Mary must certainly have been distressed, when the undiscerning were eager to be informed from herself, when modestly waiting upon them, how they might procure a sight of the beauty.
