Text Appearing Before Image:
t those who undertake long journeys among themshould travel well protected. The scene represented in the plate shows a pai*ty oftravellers, with their escort, just arriving at the halting-ground, which has been chosenon a plain, thickly scattered over with the remains of tombs and other edifices. Thesepulchres of India are so completely devoid of those features that in other countriesnaturally render them distasteful to the living, that travellers seldom make any objec-tion to take up their temporary abode among them, as wells are generally found in theirvicinity; and the localities selected are usually pleasant; while, during the greaterportion of the year, the nights in India are so remarkably fine, that the shelter affordedby a pavilion open (as the one in the plate) to all the winds of heaven, proves quitesufficient for comfort. Fires are then speedily lighted for the evening bivouac, animalsunloaded, and the baggage piled in some place that oficrs the greatest chance of security.
