A Wanderer in Florence

CHAPTER XIX
13/21

It has the sweetest, mildest little Mother, and in addition to the elderly Magi two tiny little saintlings adore too.

In the distance is an enchanted landscape about a fairy estuary.
This hospital is a very busy one, and the authorities are glad to show it to visitors who really take an interest in such work.

Rich Italians carry on a fine rivalry in generosity to such institutions.

Bologna, for instance, could probably give lessons in thoughtful charity to the whole world.
The building opposite the hospital has a loggia which is notable for a series of four arches, like those of the Mercato Nuovo, and in summer for the flowers that hang down from the little balconies.

A pretty building.
