| Out of this flat tropical planisphere rises a series four man-made mountain peaks, each echoed by a ripple of lesser man-made hillocks. |
| Peculiarly shaped rocks and hillocks having striking features lie scattered all over the earth. |
| Bisho high-rise buildings dot the horizon and small hillocks surround the village of Masingata, close to King William's Town. |
| Of these natural hillocks, an illustration is found in the chalk monticle on which Corfe Castle is built. |
| For no less than three miles this vast upland of hillocks and brows roll on, serried knolls which appear to stretch onwards into infinity. |
| On hillocks trailing she-oaks, olives, myrtle and prickly pear, circular ruins rise up, like razed windmills. |
