The Benedictine convent is highly deserving the notice of every traveller. The vast extent and general neatness of the buildings are very striking. It is enriched with a large museum […] The library is handsome; the church spacious and simple in its architecture, not being yet adorned with rich marbles. It contains an organ, justly celebrated as one of the most remarkable in Europe; the variety of its notes, and its accurate imitation of various other musical instruments, is astonishing. It is far superior to that which I heard at St. Martino, near Palermo.
