The mountains stand where they ever stood. The same valleys are still green with the morning dew, and the water-courses are unchanged. The children of Mahomet may build their tawdry temple on the threshing-floor which David bought that there might stand the Lord's house. Man may undo what man did, even though the doer was Solomon. But here we have God's handiwork and His own evidences. Trollope's travels through Palestine are remarkable both for the narrator's chauvinistic views of the Holy Land and for the curiously close relationship he forms with his travelling companion, the effeminate Mr. Smith.
