Excerpt from Napoli: Figure e Paesi; IL Teatro, la Canzone, la Storia, la Strada
Tempo gią fu quando il buon Dio, tenero dell'umana felicitą, iacea gravi di rosei grappoli le viti, quando Partenope, nella dolce estate, poteva dissetarsi al l'acqua limpida e sana della Bolla e del Carmignano senza aver bisogno di badare al contatore, quando il sale, ammucchiato a ogni cantone, era libera preda de' na poletani, che lo buttavano manate nel zufiritto e sulle torte fumanti tempo gią fu in cui nacque, a Napoli, da' soliti po veri ma onesti genitori, Pulcinella Cetrulo.
