And that there was here a genuine growth of the soil, a vigorous vegetation of the plebeian stock was shown by an entire national art arising from it the precursors of the Renascence in painting and even Dante himself, the soul of Italia's genius.

Many more details could be given concerning the worthy cathedral of Orense, second only in richness of certain elements to that of Santiago. The additions, both in Romanesque and ogival styles, are better than in most other cathedrals in Galicia, though, as far as Renaissance is concerned, Galicia showed but little love for Italia's art.
But the young lady who had shed a few tears over 'Italia's Marvels, came to me, and blushing, as she cast down her eyes, said the maidenly, virginal heart was more disposed to open to the sense of sweet sadness than to the comic; and she begged me to give her a copy of the first poem I had read. She said she had felt so curiously happy and creepy when she heard it.
Whether on far Italia's shores obey'd, Or where Eleusis joins thy solemn rites With the great mother's , in mysterious vales Bacchus in Bacchic Thebes best known, Thy Thebes, who claims the Thyads as her daughters; Fast by the fields with warriors dragon-sown, And where Ismenus rolls his rapid waters.

One of the pieces most current was the following epigram: Naked and tombless see, O passer-by, The thirty thousand men of Thessaly, Slain by the Aetolians and the Latin band, That came with Titus from Italia's land: Alas for mighty Macedon! that day, Swift as a roe, king Philip fled away. This was composed by Alcaeus in mockery of Philip, exaggerating the number of the slain.
It was the soft springtime the season of flowers, and green leaves, and whispering winds the pastoral May of Italia's poets: but hushed was the voice of song on the banks of the Tiber the reeds gave music no more. From the sacred Mount in which Saturn held his home, the Dryad and the Nymph, and Italy's native Sylvan, were gone for ever.
At this time there was a Grecian epigrammatic poet, ALCAE'US, of Messe'ne, who was an ardent partisan of the Roman consul Flaminius, and who celebrated the defeat of Philip in some of his epigrams. He wrote the following on the expedition of Flaminius: Xerxes from Persia led his mighty host, And Titus his from fair Italia's coast.
