Excerpt from Julian: Or, Scenes in Judea Praise to the God of Abraham: the locusts are flown. The land which they found flourishing and verdant as a garden, they have changed to the barrenness of a desert. The cities and the villages, but now so full of people, are become the region of desolation and death. Even the very city and house of God are level with the dust, and the ploughshare has gone over them. And here upon the hill of Olives I sit, a living witness of the ruin. By reason of the wonderful compassions of God, which never fail, I am escaped as a bird from the net of the fowler: yet I take little joy in this; for why should the days of one like me be lengthened out, when the mighty and excellent of the land are cut off? I rather rejoice in this, that the spoiler is gone, the armies of the alien have ceased to devour, and they who are fled, and hidden in caves and dens of the rocks, may come forth again to inhabit the land and build up the waste places. A multitude, which no man could number, have fallen before the edge of the sword, or by famine, and the air is full of the pestilential vapours that steam up from their rotting carcases. But a greater multitude remains; and it may well be that, ere many years have passed, they shall fill the land as before, and, gathered into one by him who, though long delaying, will come, pay back, and more, the measure they have received. That time will surely come. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
