Text Appearing Before Image:
ing again inverdure. Then the patriarch went forthwith his family and stood on Mount Ararat,and lo, the earth was at his feet, but howchanged. Cut into gorges which showedwhere the strong currents swept, and piledinto ridges, it bore in every part marks ofthe power that had ravaged it. Noah andhis family were alone in the world, and hebuilt an altar there on the top of the solitarymountain, and lifted his voice in prayer, andthe Almighty talked with him as friendtalketh with friend/ bidding him go forth 28 SACRED MOUNTAINS. and occupy the earth. And as the flame ofthe sacrifice rose from the mountain topbearing the patriarchs prayer heavenward,the promise was given that the earth shouldnever again be swept by a deluge, and lo,Gods signet ring appeared in the clouds,arching the man of God, and shown as awarrant that the covenant should never bebroken. Baptized by the flood—consecrated by thealtar—illumined by the first fresh rainbow,Mount Ararat stood a sacred mountain onthe earth.
