Then he moved on, took 6ail and visited Na ples, feasted upon its beauties. Yes, saw Naples, and dyed—his mustache! Walked out upon the beach where Medea stood and waved her olive branch to Jason, who had braved the dangers of the SymplegadesTnhis fifty oared ship Argo, seized the Golden Fleece and with Medea aboard, and by the help of Thetis, escaped Scylla and Charybdis, and landed with * his trophy safely at Iolcu8. From Naples he turned his steps towards the mountains. He stood upon the Alps, npon the Appenines, and drank in the silent beauties of na ture. Witnessed the ships of the desert with their cumbrous loads, moving wiftly along, noiseless as fleeting spec- res. He basked in the beams of the dark, rolling eyes of the maidens of the Levant, the beautiful “honris of the heathenish heaven, described by Ma homet, and Anacreon Moore.” The land of the myrtle and the vine; the land where the turtle is heard moaning for her love; where the whang doodle weepeth for her first born; the land of Benlab and of Hcpsidam.

The place that ia my childhood, when the imagination is fancy-free, I built my castles, n Spain, but here in this sylvan retreat, aud peopled them with a wondrous folk, bedecked in gorgeous robes, and gems of fabulous cost, that only childhood conceive.
