The name Cassarea Philippi was given it to distinguish it from C^sarea on the sea-coast. It is a poor jum- ble of a village to-day, but everywhere are remnants of Roman roads, bridges, pillars, and nobly carved cornices. Such water we have not seen in Palestine. We crossed a dozen streams of the young Jordan, two of them quite large, and lunched at the main som'ce, where the living water bursts from the rock below the cave of Pan. Here Hittites and Bedawi of the desert ; here Hebrew, Greek, and... Roman have felt the in- stinct and impulse of worship. There are 113 LETTERS FROM EGYPT AND PALESTINE three perfect niches in the rock with inscrip- tions to the God Pan. No one who has not toiled over the hot dry wastes of this thirsty land can appreciate what it is to be by a spring or stream of living water, in the music of its rushing and the shadow of the figs and olives, the willows and the poplars, that are glad as we to be near it. How often have we spoken to each other of what " the shadow of a great rock " had come to mean to us, and the longing of the Psalm- ist's heart when he cried : " As the hart panteth after the water brooks, so panteth my soul after Thee, O God.
