Take your life strongly in your hands and live it. The end is not far and your peace is at hand." Nehushta looked up suddenly and grew very grave as he spoke. Her heavy eyes rested on his, and she sighed but the sigh was still broken, by the trembling of her past sobs. "You, who are a priest and a prophet," she said, "you, who read the heaven as it were a book tell me, Zoroaster, is it not far?
"You used to be more outspoken and less of a courtier. I am not changed we must be friends as we were formerly." Zoroaster hesitated a moment before he answered: "I am the Great King's man," he said slowly. "I am, therefore, also the queen's servant."
And tell him he is summoned to appear before me. Tell him the business brooks no delay. Auramazda be with thee and bring thee help. Go with speed." Again Zoroaster turned and in a moment he was gone. He had sworn to be the king's faithful servant, and he would keep his oath, cost what it might, though it was bitterness to him to leave Nehushta without a word.
"It is long since we have met, Zoroaster," she said quickly. "Tell me of your life in that wild fortress. You have prospered in your profession of arms you wear the royal chain." She put up her hand and touched the links as though to feel them. "Indeed it is very like the chain Darius wore when he went to Babylon the other day."
Show me Nehushta, the daughter of the kings of Judah." "I am thy servant. The princess is at hand," answered Zoroaster; but as he spoke, he turned pale to the lips. By this time it had grown dark, and the moon, just past the full, had not yet risen from behind the mound of the fortress.
Zoroaster looked up and fell to the ground upon his knees in wonder and amazement at Daniel's feet, while his heavy helmet rolled clanging on the marble pavement. The prophet stood erect as a giant oak, stretching his withered hands to heaven, all the mass of his snow-white hair and beard falling about him to his waist.
One of these was Zarathustra, or Zoroaster, who wrote part of the Zend-Avesta and founded a religion which in some points resembles ours, and Zarathustra, according to the scholars, flourished at least eight hundred years before Christ.
She had followed the Monotheism of Zoroaster; had then accepted Dualism, and exchanged that for Magianism. At the time of the Macedonian expedition, she recognized one universal Intelligence, the Creator, Preserver, and Governor of all things, the most holy essence of truth, the giver of all good. He was not to be represented by any image, or any graven form.
He recognised it in the simple creed of the followers of Zoroaster. He recognised it in Christianity. There was good in all. He believed, likewise, that there was good in all men. Hence his great forbearance, his unwillingness to punish so long as there was hope of reform, his love of pardoning. 'Go and sin no more' was a precept that constituted the very essence of his conduct.
Tell them that if they do not know Latin to at least study the religions, since they fail to recognize the true one! "Thus spoke Zarathustra, or Zoroaster. Then, Voltaire Voltaire, who had heard what you were saying about his death, accosted me, and grasping me by the hand, effusively thanked me. "'Why so? I asked him.
