Alone and in silence, at the supposed centre of the world, and far, far from home, I tried fervently to remember my sins before God, and all the places and persons in the East Indies and in Europe most near and dear unto me. I rose, pulled a flower, which was afterwards sent home to my dear daughter Maggie, and I came back from this scene of hope, joy, and sorrow to give room to other visitors, for not more than three or four can be admitted at a time. Without and around the door of the sepulch...re, but still under the dome, there was a crowd of pilgrims, Copts, Abys- sinians, Syrians, Maronites, Greeks, Armenians, and Boman Catholics, all prostrate on the marble floor. Deep silence obtained. Every body seemed pale and as if struggling for breath. As each trembling traveller was admitted to the grave he seemed to feel in the nervousness of his frame as if he were about to pass into the presence of God face to face. When I entered, I felt almost as if I had been summoned by death to give an account of the deeds done in the body.
