A day of feasts and fetes to the rich of triple toil to the task- trammeled poor.
What should we do, we few forlorn foreigners, sequestered in a strange land? There is no lack of entertainment in that storied city; but, ah! to choose!
The lovers of the party suggested La Vega. 1 here are gondolas on La Vega, curtained with the national colors, cush ioned with fragrant reeds, steered by skilled craftsmen, withersoe er the stranger wills, in those cypress-shadowed shoals; past the famous floating... gardens, redolent with unnumbered roses, beneath lichen-hung bridges and abandoned cause\vays, mutely eloquent of a brilliant, barbaric past.
Here, too, are beings fantastically ap pareled in feather-woven zarapes and wreaths of poppies ; but La Vega, as a Sun day resort, is not sanctioned by the diplo matic arbiters and so, the gondolas remained moored in their Roman-arched waters that day; at least, so far as one small party of Americanos was concerned. But people A MEXICAN HOLIDAY 41 who forswear Venetian barges, foliaged canals, floating gardens and views of crumb ling Casas Grandes must be amused and the edict of this exclusive class is the bull-fight, (though why the butchery of bulls should be more genteel than the beauties of na ture and art, is not apparent), however, there is contagion in custom.
