[Following the Equator Part 2 by Mark Twain]@TWC D-Link bookFollowing the Equator Part 2 CHAPTER XII 9/10
And as this huge continent swept along overshadowing the earth, upon its slopes they discerned the twinkling lights of a thousand sleeping villages, and it was as if the constellations were filing in procession through the sky.
While they were looking, Hanuman stumbled, and a small ridge of red sandstone twenty miles long was jolted loose and fell.
Half of its length has wasted away in the course of the ages, but the other ten miles of it remain in the plain by Govardhun to this day as proof of the might of the inspiration of our gods.
You must know, yourself, that Hanuman could not have carried those mountains to Ceylon except by the strength of the gods.
You know that it was not done by his own strength, therefore, you know that it was done by the strength of the gods, just as you know that Samson carried the gates by the divine strength and not by his own.
