Original Narrative: Trevi: The power of historical association is strongly felt in the neighbourhood of Trevi. Monuments there are none, but the memorial of the graphic Livy has done more for the spot than the most durable and sumptuous pile could have effected. It has been elegantly observed by Eustace that the pictures of the great writers of antiquity so resemble the objects which they are intended to represent, that a traveller might imagine they had always been sketched on the spot itself and in the very heat of action. The particular passage in the historian to which this remark alludes, is the description given of the celebrated battle fought on the banks of the Trebia between Hannibal and the consul Sempronius. Polybius has also detailed the circumstances of the same memorable engagement, and, with the feelings inspired by the pictures drawn so vividly by these eloquent writers, the tourist will find enough in the neighbourhood of Trevi to convey his imagination back through a series of ages pregnant with brilliant incident.
