Krátky popis
A mountain-chain, pierced through from base to summit—a gorge four
miles in length, walled in by lofty precipices; between their dizzy
heights the giant stream of the Old World, the Danube. Did the
pressure of this mass of water force a passage for itself, or was
the rock riven by subterranean fire? Did Neptune or Vulcan, or both
together, execute this supernatural work, which the iron-clad hand
of man scarce can emulate in these days of competition with divine
achievements? Of the rule of the one deity traces are visible on
the heights of Fruska Gora in the fossil sea-shells strewn around,
and in Veterani's cave with its petrified relics of saurian
monsters of the deep; of the other god, the basalt of Piatra
Detonata bears witness. While the man of the iron hand is revealed
by long galleries hewn in the rock, a vaulted road, the ruined
piers of an immense bridge, the tablets sculptured in bas-relief on
the face of the cliff, and by a channel two hundred feet wide,
hollowed in the bed of the river, through which the largest ships
may pass. The Iron Gate has a history of two thousand years. Four
nations—Romans, Turks, Roumanians and Hungarians, have each in turn
given it a different name.
