Book Description
Excerpt from The Siege of Corinth, a Poem; Parisina, a Poem Napoli di Romania is not now the most considerable place in the Mo rea, but 'ih'ipolitza, where the Pacha resides, and maintains his government. Napoli is near Argos. I visited all three in 1810-1 1 and in the course of journeying through the country from my first arrival in 1809, I crossed the Isthmus eight times in my way from Attica tn the Morea, over the moun tains, or in the other direction, when passing from the Gulf of Athens to that of Lepanto. Both the routes are picturesque and beautiful, though very di 'erent: that by sea has more sameness, but the voyage being always within sight of land, and often very near it, presents many attractive views of the islands Salamis, Egina, Poro, &c. And the coast of the continent. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
