No portion of the United States is richer than this high THE LAXD OF BEULAH. 317 plateau, containing several thousand square miles of well watered, fertile land, covered with flocks and herds, and black with Bedouin tents. The soil is a rich limestone loam, capable of supporting an immense population, and of growing almost any thing ; reminding one very much of the rich rolling prairies of the "Western States. The central portion of this region is known among the na- tives as the Belka, and fro...m its natural productiveness, its salu- brious climate, and the grand outlook from the lofty mountains, taking in the whole of the Land of Promise from u Dan to Beer-sheba, " and "from the Jordan to the uttermost sea, " with Jerusalem, " the city of God, " as the central figure, probably suggested to Isaiah his imagery of the Land of Beulah, which Bunyun has so beautifully woven into allegory ; illustrating the repose experienced by the Christian warrior after having over- come the world, and the joy which enraptures his soul, when, with the heavenly Canaan and the Celestial City in view, he descends into the shadowy valley of death, crosses in safety the Jordan, and passes triumphantly home.
