Synopsis
Excerpt from Observations and Reflections Made in the Course of a Journey Through France, Italy, and Germany, Vol. 2 of 2

Caprea lies Oppofite the drawing-room or gallery, which is magnificent; and my bed-chamber commands a complete view of the mountain, which I value more, and which called me the firlt night twenty times away from neep and fupper, though never fo in want of both as at that moment furely.
