Addison, Joseph: Remarks on several parts of Italy: &c. in the years 1701, 1702, 1703 (London: Tonson, 1718)

Jsunique & pracipites fuperaverat Anxuris

141 From Rome to Naples.
Lucan has describ’d the very Road
from Anxur to Rome, that Horace took
from Rome to Anxur. It is not indeed
the ordinary Way at present, nor is it
mark’d out by the same Places in both
Poets.

-And to Pontina’s wat’ry Marshes went,
A long Canal the muddy Fenn divides,
And with a clear unsully’d Current glides j
Diana's woody Realms he next invades,
And eroding through the cohsecrated
Shades
Ascends high Alba^ whence' with new
Delight
He sees the City riling to his Sight.
