Burning mountains : An account of two great and dreadful volcanic eruptions viz, that of Mount Aetna in Sicily, 1669. Which laid waste a great part of the beautiful city of Catania and destroyed in its progress the property of near thirty thousand persons. And tha late dreadful eruption of Mount Vesuvius in Italy. Which broke out on the 15th of June 1794 and continued in force about 10 days; the lava of which, overwhelmed, burnt and destroyed the greatest part of the town of Torre del Grico, allowing the unfortunate inhabitants scarcely time to save their lives, and heating the water to such a degree, where it fell into the sea; that a great many boiled fish were seen floating on its surface. (Collected from Gregory's economy of nature.).
