Text Appearing Before Image:
reign was a vast construction yard, and from adistance, owing to the innumerable scaffoldingswhich arose above it, the city of Jerusalem re-sembled a bunch of toothpicks. Even Heimweh, however, does not seem to havegrasped the significance of these propensities. Thefact is that Solomon yearned to be considered apatron of the arts. Whether from a desire to es-cape from the importunities of his wives, or from agenuine love of the beautiful, he determined to sur-round himself with all of the most cunning artisans,workers in gold and in silver, in brass, in iron, instone and in timber. Whatever his motives, he filled his court withbrilliant artists and his courtyards with gorgeousstuffs, which his fleets went far and wide to seek.With all due respect to Sackcloth and Heimweh,he made possible such a gathering of peerless crafts-widespread deforestation for the changes in climate which graduallycame over Palestine. Solomon, one of them remarks, might well have said, After methe drought! 96
