Excerpt from Classical Excursion From Rome to Arpino
Rome, during the autumnal heats, is certainly the most desolate and forlorn. A religious, a funeral procession, mendicants livid from the effects of the malaria, eating away with an additional kiss the toes of the pilot of the Galilean lake, are the objects which principally fix the attention of the stranger; who at that season, can only hope to derive amusement from sources, which the living world is unable to afford.
But Rome, from its historical recollections alone, presents the richest compensation for the absence of that activity seen in other capitals. Athens, Venice, Genoa, furnish, it is true, the memory with a series of highly interesting events} but they can only be contemplated in reference to one system of civil polity; or if there be more, the differential shades are unimportant, and feebly marked. Not so the ancient mistress of the world; which from the grandeur and variety of her revolutions, has a stronger hold upon the memory. Dupaty, in a work too enthusiastic, but not destitute of merit, arranges its history in three epochs.
