Text Appearing Before Image:
nely mountain. Of the con-versation that passed between them therewe know nothing: but little sleep, we im-agine, visited their eyes that night; and asthey sat on the high summit and watchedthe stars, as they rose one after anotherabove the horizon, and gazed on the moonas she poured her light over the dim anddarkened landscape, words were spoken thatseemed born of heaven and truths never to 144 SACRED MOUNTAINS. be forgotten were uttered in the ears of thesubdued and reverent disciples. Oh, how different is heaven and earth !Can there be a stranger contrast than theBattle and Transfiguration of Mount Tabor ?One shudders to think of Bonaparte and theSon of God on the same mountain: one withhis wasting cannon by his side, and the otherwith Moses and Elias just from heaven. But no after desecration can destroy thefirst consecration of Mount Tabor; for, bap-tized with the glory of heaven, and honoredwith the wondrous scene of the Transfigura-tion, it stands a Sacred Mountain on theearth.
