Horatio convinces a reluctant Clorinda to visit England. On the way, they stop at the Villa di Cicerone, named for Cicero. "All the beauty of the most beautiful part of the Peninsula seems concentrated in that entrancing spot - the perfume of orange flowers filled the air - the sea was at their feet - the vine-clad hills around. All this excess of loveliness only added to the unutterable misery of the Neapolitan girl" (405). Clorinda grows ill and dies, and a grieving Horatio returns to England.
