Excerpt from Ada Reis, Vol. 2 of 3: A Tale
Lima, once the capital of Peru, com mands the prospect of a country diver sified by rivers and mountains, adorned by forests and groves of olives, orange and lemon trees. Northward, though at a considerable distance, runs the Cordillera, or chain of the Andes, from whence some of the hills project into the valley, the nearest of which are those of St. Christopher and the Aman caes. The river in its course approaches the very walls of the city: a superb stone bridge is built over it; atone end of which a gate, remarkable for its architecture, forms the principal en trance into the town, and leads to the great square. In the centre of the square is a fountain, from which the purest water is thrown up by the trumpet of a bronze statue of Fame.
