Text Appearing Before Image:
der a keeper, who has apension for the service. He was a quiet, venerable soul, whobrought us the relic in a glass case. The hair was long, andhad a reddish auburn tinge which time has not touched.Another relic was a print of Mohammeds foot in marble.The footprint was deep and clear, and shows that when theProphet put his foot down it was with a force which even therocks could not resist. We strolled about the mosque, whichis large and capacious, as should become the temple of an em-peror. A few devout souls were at prayer, but somehow thebuilding had a neglected look. The mosque itself is 201 feetlong and 120 feet broad, and the minarets 130 feet high. Itwas here that the Mogul emperors worshiped, and here wasread the litany of the house of Timur. The last of these per-formances was during the mutiny in 1857, when the old kingcame in state, as his ancestors did, and reproduced the sacredstory of the sacrifice of Abraham in the sacrifice of a camel byhis own royal hands. r1 >o T 3a
