Text Appearing Before Image:
Pórtico de San Agustín, en Quilo fraces, remedo de los antiguos trajes incas, dan cierto tinte local al aspecto de estos re-gocijos. Digamos algo de las procesiones que están aún en auge. El pueblo de Quito, «la ciudadeclesiástica,» es aún gran admirador de las pomposas solemnidades de la Iglesia. Presenciéuna de las procesiones del Corpus, cuya fiesta se celebró el dia 15 de junio; pero el 25 volvióá celebrarse, á modo de octava, con no menos concurrencia que la primera.

Sobre una tabla cuadrada, sostenida por ocho fieles, se levanta la imagen delNazareno, de grandes dimensiones, rodeada de cirios y jarros de flores artificiales. El Señorva rizado con esmero; sus largas melenas en tirabuzones caen sobre sus hombros; una aureo-la de cinco rayos de cobre dorado, rodea su cabeza, viste una túnica roja, medio oculta bajoun ancho manto de terciopelo del mismo color bordado en oro, y dos grupos de ángeles con lasalas desplegadas desfilan por su lado, llevando cada figura cuatro hombres de buena voluntad. El grupo que seguía á continuación, era el de la Madre de Dios. La imagen iba colocadaen una peana de la misma forma que la del Salvador, si bien sus cuatro esquinas estabanadornadas con niños alados de cabeza amuñecada; una religiosa de la Merced, un terciomenor que la Virgen, oraba á sus pies, con las manos juntas.
