[Sec. VIL It was a noble prospect ; and I rejoiced in being tbus able to survey the whole Ghor on the north of Kurn Sflrtabeh, as fnlly as I before had viewed the portion on the south of that mountain. The day was fine, and the atmosphere perfectly clear. • This high point proved to be the brow of the first j)lateau of the mountain. Setting off again at 9. 10 on a course about northeast, we continued to ascend quite gradually over a gentle slope, through a beautiful region of country. The field...s were covered with a noble crop of wheat ; than which we had seen none heavier or better. It was not yet ripe for the harvest. The land not thus occupied, was covered with splendid pas- turage. The orchards of oak were now more frequent. At 9. 25 we saw the inhabited village of Helaweh about two miles distant, south of Wady Yabis, bearing S. 50° E. At 9. 40 Kul'at er- Eiibud came in sight in the southeast, stiU high above us ; it is also known as Kul'at Ibn Fureih. ' At 10 o'clock we were in sight of Kefr Abil ; and here another less prominent brow afforded us still a wide prospect.^ We came to Kefr Abil at 10.
