After leaving this wonderful place — thrice wonderful ! thrice beauti- ful ! — we proceeded home through the Forum, and here we stopped the carriage again, and paused to look round and remem- ber. Visions of the old glorious Rome rose before us in the clear moonlight — the joyful procession of those early conquerors, in the fabulous times of her history — the white-robed Roman youths FASTER EVE. 135 marching from Veii, and bearmg the image of Juno Regina to her new temple on the Capitol — the b...lue-eyed wondering Gauls, wandering through the deserted streets and places, and gazing up, even as we then did, at the fortress that then held within its narrow precincts the future hopes and fortunes of Rome, and folded, as within its kernel, the great future tree, that life of con- quest and renown, whose rumor still fills the world — that Caesar who was to subjugate their tribes with his sword, and chronicle them with his pen. Then floating down the broader, brighter stream of history, we thought of the tumult, the alarm, the rush- ing of people, the stir of voices, and the tramp of hurrying feet, when Brutus, waving his dagger above his head, red with that very conqueror's blood, and followed by the mas-s of the whole Senate, came down to quell the raging of the people, and justify the murder of their idol.
