To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The church of S. Maria in Cosmedin is made out of two temples, one of which was probably that of Mater Matuta.
The celebrated Bocca della Verita stands in the porch of this church. That mask of white marble with the mouth in it is of great antiquity, and the upper lip is cut in such a manner that it would slip up and down, so that a priest behind with a winch could fix the hand of any one whom he suspected of taking a lidse oath.
The Forum of Trajan b so closely connected with his other mag- ni...ficent buildings, that it is impossible to separate them. They were all made in what had been originally the great foss of the Capitoline fortress, on the eastern side, in which was the road as usual ; but this being too narrow for the purpose the great emperor had in view, he enlaiged it on its eastern side by cutting away as much as was ne- cessary of the tufii rock of that part of the Quirinal Hill This is recorded on the base of the column, in an inscription which says that the rock cut away was of the same height as the top of the column, and we see the Tor delle Milizie now standing on the rock at that level Under this, at the comer, is the east side of the Forum, * Prooopias de bdk> Gothico^ liK iv.
