While Venice is thus fire at sea, a city OF light
houses, great beacon burning down the Medltena-
mean. a new Stromboli with souls for Goals IN IT'S
working crater every sister city in Italy has esped
into flame TO honor her. There are burning torches
at Palermo; Massena is betting her famed Strait with
fire; the Bay Of Naples is beach OF blaze; Florence
hOsts the treOlor lamp to ell her towers aud campa-
niles; Ravenna, in her remote and venerable repose,
cries rirds for Venice at Dantes tomb; in Pisa, the
leaning tower swings TO the reverberating cheers

of Saint Mark but wreathes their counter
feits in laurel; and every city under the
Alps becomes a bonfire, to make this Liberation an
equal outburst of humanity and love wherever the soft
language of the south is household utterance One
of the galaxy Of great municipalities alone stands dark
and sullen among her mountains. There is no streak
Of light upon her hills Around her forum there are
those who keep watch TO murder him who cheers Tor
Venice Her churches are dumb to the choral song or
a waiting people redeemed and made glad by freedom.
