Excerpt from Carthage and Tunis, Vol. 2: The Old and New Gates of the Orient
The cities it was easy to picture as far as walls and houses went, for architecture can be almost as eternal as the rocks on which it stands, unless the hand of man which raised it up hurls it down. But somehow it was difficult to picture men in classic robes of many colours, with bare legs and feet, the children of the sun.
