In Hungary the forests are usually so thick that one scarcely ever fires at a long range, and heavy shot at a short distance in a thicket is better than a bullet. After driving in a break-neck fashion for about two hours we arrived at the river Bodrog, a tributary of the Theiss.
"They can practise enchantment," said the Roman, "but that goes beyond everything." "It is the Fata Morgana, or the mirage," explained the guide. As the evening came on, the caravan halted in order to rest for the night. On the stretch of land between Bodrog and Theiss, Attila had his standing camp, for it could not be called a town.
Tokay has 4000 inhabitants; it is at the foot of the hill, close to the junction of the Theiss and the Bodrog; a ruined castle forms a picturesque object in the foreground, and beyond is the far-stretching plain. Professor Judd says that at one period of their history "the volcanic islands of Hungary must have been very similar in appearance to those of the Grecian Archipelago."
