Three more Hungarian miles carry us this day to _Koes_, thro a continued wood, wherein are observable many curious trees, herbs, and flowers, particularly the _fraxinella_; to say nothing of the damask roses, hyacinths, _barbaréae_, _lilia convallium_, and some others, obvious in our whole road thro Hungary. June xvi. From _Koes_, where his Excellency lodged the last night, in an house of Count _Estzerhazi_, Palatin of Hungary, it is one Hungarian mile to _Igmand_, at which we arrive by eight a clock this morning. And one mile from thence toward the right hand we stop to see the city and fort of _Komora_. In a post calash we arrive on the banks of the _Danube_ by ten a clock, and passing over in a boat enter the city, which is seated on the point of the island _Schut_, where it is washed on one side by the _Danube_ itself; and on the other by that branch of it, which takes the name of _Wag_, from that river falling into it not far above the city _Komora_. The extreme point of this island is possessed by the castle and fort, consisting of four bastions, and an angle at the farther end, which represents the figure of a tortoise. Before the gate and drawbridge there is a place of arms, and before that another strait fortification with two bastions and an half moon, added by the present Emperor. This was the last bulwark against the Turks, before the success of the last war, and is called the _Virgin Fort_, in token of its having never been taken by the enemy. To perpetuate the memory of this, the statue of a virgin is erected in one angle of that bastion, which is on the left hand at the entrance of the place. After this view of the castle we content ourselves with a slighter view of the town, which appears neat and compact; and by two a clock return to his Excellency’s quarters at _Igmand_, the whole way lying over a green, naked, and level plain. In the castle of _Komora_ I found the three following inscriptions, two of them in Latin, and the third in Greek, which are cut upon stone coffins. D. M. M. VAL. VALERIANI LEG. IIII FL. VIXIT AN.
