Hello All,

-------------------------------------------------------

Thousand four hundred
Ninety two,
There was heard here a great
Noise:
Then down before the city,
The 7th of the Wintermonth*,
A huge stone, on a bright day,
Was fallen with a thunderclap,
In weight, two hundred and fifty pounds,
Of iron color; they brought it in
With a stately procession.
Very many pieces were struck from it with force.
1492.

by J.J. "Casimir" Karpff, 1795

Cheers,

Bernd
