[524] The sea marsh "Cameria" is not indicated in the latest maps of

Italy, but it would appear that some such name in the Pontine Bogs had

recalled to Sir Walter the ancient proverb relating to Camarina, that

Sicilian city on the marsh "which Fate forbad to drain."--Conington's

_Virgil (Æn._ iii. 700-1).

[525] Porta St. Giovanni, rebuilt by Gregory XIII. in 1574.
