Text on source
I canti poi degli Arabi, il cicalar delle femmine, il battere in cadenza le mani, come ne hanno l'uso formando un crocchio, il mormorio de' varii crocchi, dei venditori e del popolo tutto, un'aria fresca e placida, un bel cielo stellato, tutto presenta uno spettacolo curiosissimo e nuovo per chi non soggiorno in queste contrade.
