Text Appearing Before Image:
meet thecoming tempest,-—fierce lightnings traversedthe angry masses, as they pushed them-selves upward,—the thunder came mutteringover the Mediterranean, as it rolled its vexedwaters against the base of the mountain,—the sound of wind and rain was borne land-ward, and day was turned into sudden night,as the storm burst on the land of Israel. Thethirsty and barren earth again smiled in ver-dure, and the long curse was removed. Whata day of terror and of grace that had been toIsrael, and as the prophet lay that night andlistened to the descending rain, methinks hisheart swelled with deeper gratitude thanever before to the God of his fathers. Mount Carmel still stands by the sea, and 108 SACRED MOUNTAINS. overlooks the same prospect, but the peopleof God are no longer there. Priest andprophet have disappeared, and there is noElijah now to plead in their behalf. ATurkish mosque stands where arose the al-tar of God, and the Muezzins voice ringswhere arose the prayer of the prophet.
