Text Appearing Before Image:
bling temple, or agladiators circus; and in this gigantic causeway, and in seventy-five arches,traversed with fiery speed by dragons,brazen-winged,—to whic;h neither Aipnor ocean can oppose a barrier—noth-ing but a common-place. I must say Ipity them. I see a future fraughtwith hopes for Venice— Twining memories of old time,With new virtues more sublime I I will join in any denunciations againstthe devastators, white-washers, and so-called renovators; may they be—re-warded ! But in the midst of our re-grets for the beauty that is outwornor profaned, why should we despond,as if the fountains of beauty were re-served in heaven, and flowed no moreto us on earth ? Why should we bealways looking back, till our heads arewell-nigh twisted off our shoulders ?Why all our reverence, all our faithfor the past; as if the night were al-ready come in which no man canwork—as if there were not a lone:day before us for effort in the cause afhumanity—for progress in the knowl-edge of good ?
Text Appearing After Image:
