Excerpt from Florence, Vol. 1 of 2: The Beautiful
Sion perhaps lends to it an additional charm. The iron rail traverses, but has not invaded its repose, peaceful hamlets rest on the banks of the noble Loire, which rolls on its course with the stillness of a strong and mighty Spirit conscious of a great purpose. Here commerce recals to the happy, listless tra veller, idling on the river banks, that, separate himself as he may from the world, there are links which cannot be broken, and that even the silent, unconscious river binds man to man, and nation to nation; but here it is commerce in her most graceful form, such as artists love to paint, and poets to.
