a ROM Milan we travell’d
thro’ a very pleasant Country,
to Brefcia, and by the way
cross’d the River Adda, that
falls into the Lago di Como,
which Virgil calls the Lake Larins? and
running out at the other Endloses itself
at last in the Po, which is the great Re-
ceptacle of all the Rivers of this Coun-
try. The Town and Province of Bre-
fcia have freer Access to the Senate of
Venice, and a quicker Redress of Injuries,
than any other Part of their Dominions.
They have always a mild and prudent
Governor, and live much more happily
than their Fellow-Subje&s: For as they
were once a Part of the Milanefe, and
are now on their Frontiers, the Veneti-
ans dare not exasperate them, by the
