"There is a cliff, whose high and bending head Looks fearfully on the confined deep. Come on, sir ; here's the place : stand still. How fearful And dizzy 'tis to cast one's eyes so low! The crows and choughs that wing the midway air Show scarce so large as beetles ; half-way down Hangs one that gathers Samphire dreadful trade! Methinks he looks no bigger than his head! The fishermen that walk upon the beach Appear like mice; and yon tall anchoring bark, Diminished to her cok; her cok a buoy, Almost too small for sight. The murmuring surge, That on the unnumbered pebbles chafes, Cannot be heard so high. I'll look no more, Lest my brain turn, and the deficient sight Topple down headlong." - William Shakepeare from King Lear.
