De L'Ester--Gentol[a:], at present we will look no further through the
Galarēs[a:], but will turn our attention to the zoölogical department
of this very comprehensive institution. This great corridor, lined with
admirable statuary, gleaming whitely through a luxuriance of palmlike
growths and blooming plants, conducts us to this broad flight of steps
leading downward to the Rinvoh (aquarium) of which this spacious and
imposing landing affords a fine view. You will attempt a description of
some of its features.
Gentola--Extending eastward and a little northward I see a small lake
divided into two sections by--and also surrounded by--a massive stone
wall the top of which serves as a promenade on which many persons are
passing to and fro. What appears to be heavy metal netting divides
the lake into numerous compartments and there are lightly constructed
bridges from which attendants are casting food to creatures in the
water. A portion of the lake is roofed over by a substantial wire
netting, and in many of the compartments are luxurious growths of
aquatic plants. The lake extends a little further north than the
northern wall of the Galarēs[a:], and bordering its northern extremity
and around on its western side I see a grove of great trees and
shrubbery, amid which are large and smaller structures and also numbers
of men, women and children, who are passing from one building to
another. In front and toward our right, basking in the vertical rays of
the sun, is a huge creature of familiar, if not pleasing, appearance.
Do you know its Ento name?
