Burton, as we have seen, had commenced his translation of Catullus, 18th February 1890, at Hammam R'irha. He finished the first rough copy of Trieste March 31st, and commenced a second copy on May 23rd.
At Hammam R'irha, Burton began in earnest his translation of Catullus, and for weeks he was immersed in it night and day.
When they reached Algiers, they were delighted with it at first; but they soon tired. Even an expedition to the baths of Hammam R'irha did not reconcile them to the place, and they left it early in March, going by boat to Marseilles, and then travelling homewards by way of the Riviera to Genoa, and thence to Venice.
