That village was passed in due course, and Sora lay before us, after a thirteen hours' march.... That same night in Sora it may have been 2 a.m. some demon drew nigh to my bedside and whispered in my ear: "What are you doing here, at Sora? Why not revisit Alatri? Up, sluggard, while the night-air is cool!"
A question, perhaps, of common sense of realising that local institutions often work with less friction and less outlay than that system of governmental centralisation of which the carbineers are an example. Meanwhile we are still at Alatri which, I am glad to discover, possesses five gateways five or even more. It is something of a relief to be away from that Roman tradition of four.
The new continuous city-wall began at the river below the Aventine, and included that hill, on which there have been brought to light recently at two different places, the one on the western slope towards the river, the other on the opposite eastern slope, colossal remains of those primitive fortifications portions of wall as high as the walls of Alatri and Ferentino, built of large square hewn blocks of tufo in courses of unequal height emerging as it were from the tomb to testify to the might of an epoch, whose buildings subsist imperishably in these walls of rock, and whose intellectual achievements will continue to exercise an influence more lasting even than these.
