SANTA ANASTASIA, VERONA. VERONA. ROM Santa Lucia, where the railways into Verona meet, the eye can alreadyembrace the enchanting prospect of the city. In the foreground stand thethreatening fortifications with their sharp strong angles surmounted by darkcypresses between which you catch glimpses of little white villas scattered onthe heights. Amid the rattle of the train and the rush of the Adige we are carriedswiftly nearer to the goal ; and our hearts beat high with expectation. For, though theItalian landscape that we have hitherto seen, captivated us, Verona is the first real Italiancity that we have greeted. And what memories awake as we draw near to her gates,—those gates behind which stands one of the finest monuments of antiquity,—behindwhich Dietrich von Bern and Alboin intrenched themselves,—where Dante lived an exile,and where Romeo grew pale beside Juliets coffin. But soon the dreamy past fades away, for the train rushes with a shrill whistle intothe station at Porta
