Excerpt from La Beata, Vol. 1 of 2
Via olezz' Amore, to which I wish to introduce the reader, was known to the generation of Florentines now gradually passing from the scene under some such appellation; for the dwelling, though the street is an obscure one, was once not altogether destitute of 'pretension. The city of Florence is, and has always been, wholly without the institution of a West End. There is no exclusively aris tocratic quarter. Fine old mansions with grand historic names are found in all parts of the city, surrounded by the dwellings of every class of the population. The fact is an interesting indication of the old thoroughly democratic constitution of society, which gained for Florence the appellation of the most republican of republics.
