To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The 24th Vefuvius continued to throw up flones as on the preceding days -, during the whole of this eruption it had differed in this circumflance from the eruption of 1766, when no Hones were thrown out of the crater from the moment the lava ran freely.
Sunday ?5th, fmall afhes fell all day at Naples 5 they iiiued from the crater of the volcano;, and formed, . 5 ■ a vafk a vaft column, as black as the mountain Itfelf, fo that the fliadow of it was marked out on the furface of the fea; continual... flashes of forked, or zig-za^ lightning fliot from this black column, the thunder of which was heard in the neighbourhood of the mountain, but not at Naples ; there were no clouds in the iky at this time, except thofe of fmoak iffuing from the crater of Vefuvius. I was much pleafed with this phenomenon, which I had not feen before in that perfection.
Monday 26th, the fmoak continued, but not fo thick, neither were there any flashes of the mountain lightning. As no lava has appeared after this column • of black fmoak, which muft have been occafioned by fome inward operation of fire, I am apt to think that the lava, which fliould naturally have followed this fymptom, has broke its way into fome deeper cavern, where it is filently brooding future mifchief j and I fliall be much miftaken if it does not break out a few months hence.
