The Fall of Mexico: A Poem is a literary work written by Edward Jerningham in 1775. It is a historical poem that narrates the story of the conquest of Mexico by the Spanish in the 16th century. The poem is divided into four parts and describes the events leading up to the fall of the Aztec empire, including the arrival of Hern�����n Cort�����s and his army, the battles between the Spanish and the indigenous people, and the eventual defeat of the Aztecs. Jerningham's work is notable for its vivid imagery and its portrayal of the brutality of the conquest, as well as its commentary on the moral implications of imperialism. The poem also features several prominent historical figures, such as Montezuma and Cort�����s, and includes elements of romance and tragedy. Overall, The Fall of Mexico is a significant work of literature that captures the spirit of its time and provides insight into the historical events that shaped the modern world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
