I afterwards enjoyed a pleasant bathe in this far-famed ancient river, and in the evening took a stroll into a neighbouring garden, kept in neat order by a Mohammedan devotee. All our party and baggage having at length crossed, we took up our quarters at the khan close to the river-side, and having spread our mattresses on the elevated platform in the centre of the court- yard, endeavoured to obtain some sleep. But that we found was out of the question, as we were disturbed by the loud devotion...s of the pilgrims who lay grouped around us, the snorting and neighing A Pilgrimage to El-Kerbela 181 of horses, the braying of asses, barking and howling of village curs, etc. We were glad to resume our journey at two o'clock on the morning of the I5th, our party forming quite a small caravan, being augmented by a good many persons who took advantage of our escort. We observed that for some distance the country around was cultivated and well irrigated ; but as we advanced farther, it became a perfect desert, relieved only by a small oasis in the shape of a patch of green near the tomb of some Mohammedan saint.
