Everything that could be thought, said or done, took on body and soul here. The most varied cottons and silks were spun, all kinds of metals were hammered, ancient melodies were sung, meaning was encrusted in alabaster sonnets, and imaginary constructions of form and spirit were erected. The City, as men had firmly established its reputation, was a place of enchantment. And the stay glided along. Without obstacle.
