The Innocents Abroad
Part 6 of 6

CHAPTER LIV
23/25

If they were to turn one loose now, he would not get as far as the Garden of Gethsemane, till these miserable vagabonds here would gobble him up,--[Favorite pilgrim expression.]--sins and all.

They wouldn't care.

Mutton-chops and sin is good enough living for them.

The Moslems watch the Golden Gate with a jealous eye, and an anxious one, for they have an honored tradition that when it falls, Islamism will fall and with it the Ottoman Empire.
It did not grieve me any to notice that the old gate was getting a little shaky.
We are at home again.
