Edifice of St. Peter's is Illuminated, and every detail of the
glorious Architecture shines forth in lines of resplendent

Art ever invented. A fac simile of this

ROCKETS, and CASCADES Of FIRE, FOUNTAINS, and STARS,
the whole of the Eternal City will appear as visible as by
the broad light of day.
