Description

Excerpt from In the Permanent Way Islam; fierce-featured, hawk-eyed, with the nameless look of his race; a look suiting the curved sword he wore, in virtue of his office as watchman, better than the brass badge slung over his shoulder pro claiming him to be a member Of the Indian Church Establishment - that alien Church in an alien land. And yet the Old man's figure fitted close with - the building he guarded; for despite the new title Of St. John's-in - the-wilderness, the church remained outwardly what it had been built to be - a Ma homedan tomb. Its white dome and corner cupolas rose familiarly into the blue sky beyond the sirus trees, where, even at this early hour, a hint of com ing heat was to be seen in a certain pallidness and hardness. Within, beneath that central dome, en circled now by pious Christian texts, lay buried a champion Of another God, whose name, interlaced into a thousand delicate traceries, still formed the decoration Of each architrave, each screen; lay buried, let us hope, beyond sight or sound Of what went on above his helplessness.
