NAZARETH, Fountain of the Virgin.—The Greeks [i.e. Greek Orthodox], differing from the Latins in their identification of the spot where the Angel Gabriel saluted the Virgin Mary, have erected their Church of the Annunciation on the eastern side of Nazareth. Their belief is that Mary was standing by the fountain, drawing water, when she received the heavenly visitation. Over this fountain their church stands. It is a low, plain structure, containing a number of cleverly painted Bible scenes and an excellent picture of the Annunciation. From beneath the church the water flows through a stone archway to an outlet just below. The scene about the spot where the water flows into a stone trough is always animated and interesting. It is a favorite meeting-place for the young people of the town, and, at evening, they may be seen in numbers awaiting their turn to fill their vessels. No matter how little our faith in the belief of the Greeks, we are constrained to see that, as this is the most prominent fountain in the neighborhood, the boy Jesus must have frequently tasted of its waters.
