Excerpt from book: III. SAVONAROLA. f I HERE are certain places in the world which affect us in the way that some old strain of music does, as it brings the light of other days around us. We always associate the music and the place together: the one invariably suggests the other. Florence is one of these marked places. We always think of Dante and Tasso and Savonarola, when we think of that charming city. There is Dante's empty tomb, for his body still reposes at Ravenna; and there is Savonarola's cell, and Tasso's home, - and their checkered history is indissolubly linked with that of the fair city itself. There has always been something strangely suggestive about Italian Reformers. They have loved their country with a Southern vehemence which, for the most part, has insured for them while living the fiercest persecution; but when they have passed away, the sons of those who stoned the prophets seem as if they could not gather costly stones enough with which to honor their once banished names. As Lord Byron says in Childe Harold, - "Ungrateful Florence! Dante sleeps afar, Like Scipio, buried by the upbraiding shore; Thy factions in their worse than civil war Proscribed the bard, whose name for evermore Their children's children would in vain adore, With' the remorse of ages! " There is no one who did more for his native city and his national church than the great religious and political reformer, Savonarola; and there is no one who suffered greater indignities at the hands of his fellow-citizens than he. His native historians and his own letters have portrayed to posterity his strange character and career; and the greatest of living novelists, in one of her most striking works, has painted for us, in a Shakspearian manner, the person and surroundings of Savonarola as seen Books, Literary Collections~~General, Essays-Of-Today~~Wm-Wilberforce-Newton, 999999999, Essays Of Today, William Wilberforce Newton, 1104068885, Kessinger Publishing Company, , , , , Kessinger Publishing Company<
