Life Of Torquato Tasso PDF Download

Excerpt from Life of Torquato Tasso Some years ago, it was our good fortune to spend a whole summer at the Bagni della Villa, in Italy. The small town is situated in the valley of the Lima, about fifteen miles from Lucca, and about fifty from Florence. The valley is narrow; on either side of the swift-flowing river the mountain slopes away to the sky; along the winding highway stand Italian cottages in scattered groups, and half buried in thick foliage. The dashing waters of the Lima not only make music in the valley and mountain uplands, but stir and cool the sultry southern air.
