187 kick him and cuff him, treat him like a dog, and he crouches at your feet, the huikibie slave of your slightest wishes.
Our road led through scenes of present desolation and rocky barrenness, only broken by a few scattered olive-trees, and numerous remains of former industry, characterizing the once fertile and productive hills of Judea, until we reached a place called -Singain, about fifteen miles from Jerusalem, where I de- termined to halt for the night.
On our approach, it appeared that... the poor villagers, terrified by former exactions, had fled at the sight of a body of armed men. However, on the spot where we now halted, and which I was assured was Sin* gain, I not only beheld no inhabitants, but no visible sign of habitations ; and, whilst holding a council of war with Laue and Hunter, we were not a little surprised at seeing some miserable-looking objects crawl, almost from under our feet, as if from a bur- row in the declivity on which we were assembled, and with many expressions of terror, they begged us not to sink in their Digitized by VjOOQ IC 188 A FORAY habitations, on the roof of which, it appeared* our horses were then standing I We, in short, found ourselves amongst, if not a set of Troglodytes, a species very nearly approaching that genus of the human race — their abodes being partly burrowed out of the face of the hill, and only entered by passages, down which it was necessary to creep on all fours.
