He was a better artist with his sword than with his pen.
We went down by the river and saw the Square Tower.

It was a very venerable structure, very strong, and very ornamental.

There was no opening near the ground.

They had to use a ladder to get into it, no doubt.
We visited the principal church, also--a curious old structure, with a towerlike spire adorned with all sorts of grotesque images.

The inner walls of the church were placarded with large mural tablets of copper, bearing engraved inscriptions celebrating the merits of old Heilbronn worthies of two or three centuries ago, and also bearing rudely painted effigies of themselves and their families tricked out in the queer costumes of those days.
