Text Appearing Before Image:
r enclosure of this sacred building, is a small pool of water,which is pointed out to the curious as possessing a high degree of sanctity in theminds of the Hindoos, and which the Moslems, who believe in many of their neighboursmarvels, look upon with some degree of respect. It is milky in its appearance, but perfectly wholesome. No other spring of the kind is found in any part of the neighbour-hood ; and none may presume to question the truth of the tradition which ascribes it to the piety of a Brahmin, who brought a small quantity of the holy water of the Ganges tothis remote spot. Rapidly increasing into the pool that yet spreads its pearly surface to the air, it maintains its distinct character, and affords to the devout believer a miraculousproof of the sanctity of the far-distant and venerated river. A tomb in the neighbourhood of this mosque, named the Mootee-gil (House of Pearl),in consequence of the pure whiteness and brilliant lustre of the chunara with which it is ^ ^. S£ ft*
