Excerpt from Rovine di Antiche Città, con Racconti Generali e Particolari della Loro Origine, Decadenza e Presente Condizione, Vol. 3
Rama è situata a trenta miglia da Gerusalemme, nel mezzo d'una pianura vasta e feconda che fa parte del gran campo di Sharon. Vista di lontano, dice il dottor Clarke, presenta un vago spettacolo, ma nel suo interno non troviamo che le traccie della deva stazione e della morte. Ci'si affaccia una scena di rovine: d'ogni parte case deserte o cadute; ed in vece di abitanti, non altro che gli scheletri e le car casse putrefatte di cammelli e di cavalli. Una pe stilenza, o per meglio dire, una morria, avea, l'anno prima, menata si fera strage, che non solamente uomini, donne e fanciulli, ma si ancora il bestiame d'ogni genere e tutto ciò che respira ne cadde vit tima. Gli abitanti d' Europa non possono farsi capaci di ciò che ebbero a soffrire le coste di Palestina e di Siria. Questo malore segui ed in parte accompagnò le tremende devastazioni che segnarono la marcia dell' esercito francese. Da quanto ne fu raccontato.
