There was however no water in the place, but a beautiful well, which burst forth for the occasion and still remains, yielded a supply.

The latter part of the road wag most magnificent, combining the grandeur of the Alps with the splendour of tropical vegetation. "Some Kandyan prophet had foretold," Mr Fordyce informed me, "that the kingdom of Kandy would come to an end when a bullock should be driven through a certain hill, and a man on horseback should pass through a rock."
And this is foretold again and again in the New Testament.
