Part 3 of 6 by Mark Twain]@TWC D-Link book Part 3 of 6 3/18 The upper classes take a sea-bath every day, and are pretty decent. There are seldom any sidewalks, and when there are, they are not often wide enough to pass a man on without caroming on him. So everybody walks in the street--and where the street is wide enough, carriages are forever dashing along. Why a thousand people are not run over and crippled every day is a mystery that no man can solve. But if there is an eighth wonder in the world, it must be the dwelling-houses of Naples. |
