Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Ecce Terra, or the Hand of God in the Earth The characters which a divine Hand once traced on the walls of Belshazzars palace have all disappeared The walls themselves are gone. If the broken materials could now be found, it would be quite impossible, by any art or chemistry, or other science known to us, to discover the faintest trace of those radiant words which so dazzled the court of Babylon. Not so with the characters which a divine Hand has traced on the walls of the heavens and the earth. These walls are still standing, apparently as strong and fair as ever. Some of the inscriptions on them are as legible as when first made. Others, like the original writing of some palimpsest, have been thickly overwritten by clumsy later scribes till it is hard to make out the nobler underlying scripture. And others still were originally traced in lines that were never meant to be visible to men, save when warmed by the fires of an earnest piety or touched by the chemistry of a reverent science. But, in one state or another, all these heavenly scriptures are still extant, and may, with suitable pains, be read and interpreted. I am no Daniel. Yet I have ventured, in Ecce Coelum, to attempt the reading and interpreting of some of the divine inscriptions on the sky. In the present volume I attempt a similar work for the earth.
