Description:Excerpt from Cyrilla, Vol. 1 of 3: A Tale Mountains, too, are the natural fortifications of the town itself, the solid rock forming a part in the construction of many of the houses, while forest trees grow luxuriantly among the crags above their roofs. Salzburg in summer, and Salzburg in winter, present, however, very different aspects. The surrounding scenery is unfit for enjoyment; we perceive that the streets are narrow, the houses high, that the mountains diminish the hours of light and sunshine, and seem in their monotonous whiteness like shrouded giants about to encircle us in their frozen arms. The beautiful marble fountain in the Dom Platz is covered up with wooden planks to defend it from the frost; the exotic plants that luxuriated at all the windows have been withdrawn; deep snow lies on the ground, not, however, wet and slippery as we know it in England, but dry, hard, crisp, and crystallized; and a stranger might watch with interest the various kinds of sledges, from those on which the loaded waggon slides gratingly, its team of horses well furnished with sonorous bells, to the lighter vehicles that, gliding noiselessly along, convey the fruit and vegetables to market, the fur-capped children to school, or the capacious basket of a laundress to its destination. The mixture of monks and military is also a peculiarity that strikes immediately. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
