Excerpt from Ramazan, the Rajah
The paved streets and houses of stone and brick, some finely designed, including the old palace of the peishwas now converted for modern use, raised Poona far above an Indian village, and yet it was far less advanced, far more Eastern and native than Bombay. Nearly every breed of brown and yellow foreigner could be met there and over forty languages and dialects were known to be spoken in the bazaars. The motley gathering of people who moved about the streets, the murmur, the clamour, the mingling of strange sounds, and, above all, the vivid, ever-changing colours, were distinctly of the East.
Of the people, Indians, Afghans, and Europeans, who hurried or sauntered in the streets and byways.
