Though Babylon did excell Nineveh in the strength of the walle, and in the bridge over Euphrates which was 5 furlongs long, and in two Palaces, the one at the West end of the City being •0 furlongs in compasse; and another at the East end 30 furlongs in compasse, and in an Obelisk, or spire, which was an 150 foot high, and 24 foot thick; yet it was not half peopled so much as Nineveh, because as Q. Curtius saith, that but 90 furlongs of it were built, the rest of the ground being a lotted to Vineyards, and tilth, to maintain them in a streight siege. Nulla urbs tanto ambitu, tantave moenium magnificentia constructa est. Ʋrbem condidit non aequâ laterum dimensione, nam duae muri partes longiores fuerant reliquis. Horum latus quodque longitudine stadiorum centum, quinquaginta, breviorum verè stadiorum nonaginta. Qua muri dimensione ambitus stadia complectitur 480. Diod. Sicul. Ninos, quae & Nineveh est, imperat Cordiais, Mydonibibus, Arabus, Syris multis intra, & trans, Euphratem. Stratus. l. 6. |
