RUINS OF ANCIENT CITIES; WITH GENERAL AND PARTICULAR ACCOUNTS OF THEIR RISE, FALL, AND PRESENT CONDITION. BY CHARLES BUCKE. Fallen, fallen, a silent heap; their heroes all Sunk in their urns:—Behold the pride of pomp, The throne of nations fallen; obscured in dust Even yet majestical.—The solemn scene Elates the soul!
