Excerpt from Andros of Ephesus: A Tale of Early Christianity Had one been near him and watched his face closely, however, on this particular afternoon, there might have been discovered indications of trouble, as shown in the sad ness of the eyes and in the lines about the mouth. Strange and disquieting thoughts had recently entered the mind of Andros, the Ephesian, concerning the worship of Diana - thoughts that he could not under stand and difficulties which he was unable to solve. So general was the cultus of the great goddess that he was aware that he could not with safety confide his difficulties even to his nearest friend, yet they were real and tangible to him, and startling because of their newness and for the persistency with which they appeared to demand considera tion. He was much disquieted. He re mained stationary for a long time, his gaze fixed upon the temple, while his active mind was busy with the problems that had pre sented themselves.
