CHAPTER LXTX
'Magnificent as is the scenery of
the 'Western IG'hauts of India through
oust their range,. it is anowhcre, per-
haps, more strikingly beautiful than in
the neighborhood of the seat isolat-
ed plateau which—rising high above
the mountain -ranges around it, and
known under the name of iMaia-bn'l-
esh'wur, from the temple at the
source of the sacred river Krishnla on
its sunn:nmit—is now the favourite
retreat and s'anatoriu'm of the Bom-
bay Presidency. Tran ,roads, laid out
so as to exhibit the beauties of the
scenery to the best advlantage—pret-
ty ,English -looking cottages, 'with 'bril-
liant gardens, and e considerable nat-
ive to'wnr, are now the Main features
of the place; but at the period of
our tale it was uninhabited, except
by a few Brah'muns and devotees,
who, otttracted ,hy the holiness of the
spot, congregated around the ancient
temple, and occupied, the small vil-
lage beside it. Otherwise the charac-
ter of the wilt scenery is unchanged.
Front points near the edges of the
,plateau, where mighty 'precipices of
-basalt descend sheer into forests of
everlasting verdure and luxuriance,
the eye range, over a sea of rugged
mountain -tops, — ,ome, scathed and
shattered peaks of barren: rock --oth-
ers with extensive Ilat summits,
hounded by naked cliffs which, falling
into deep ' gloomy ravines covered
with dense forests, would seem in-

"\\'e cannot allow her, Khan,” he
said kindly, "to remain with you,

A'fzoo1'Khan remonstrated as far as

broad deep valley clothed with for-

of the woods and raviti'es below. The
top, irregularly level, furnished space
for dwelling houses and magazines,
while ample springs of pure water,
sufficed for the use of a 'large 'body,
