"In this act the person kneels and puts his head between his knees, his forehead at the same time touching the ground. It was used to express both civil and religious rever- ence. In Hindustan, religious homage is paid by prostrating the body at full Iength."--4narke. Gifts-The people of the East did not approach into the pres- pence of kings without bringing them presents. The custom still prevails in many places. Gold, ete.--Gold would always be useful, while frankincense and myrrh were prized for their delicious , fragrance. These were the very presents |Isaiah mentioned: "All they from i Sheba shall come: they shall bring gold tend incense (Isa. ex., 6). “Incense, or ifrankincense, is a resinous gum, flowing ifrom a tree, gashed for the purpose. I growing in Arabia and Lebanon. Myrrh is also a gum obtained from a tree simi- lar to the acacia. growing in Arabia."--- Whedon. 12. Warned of God in a Dream-God communicated his purpose to them in a. manner that they under. stood, and the impression or conviction was so clear that they at once obeyed.

Now when Jesus was born" (v. 1). “Thou shalt call His name Jesus" (Matt. i. 21). A brave cavalry of- ficer, dying of his wounds, thought him- self on the field at the head of his gal- lant men, and that an enemy's gun was in front of them ready to be fired. He was greatly distressed. At the mention' of the name of Jesus his agitation cons-l ed. his delihium passed away; a smile, lit up his pale face, and he said in a. towl, tone, "Jesus, Jesus! It is He who said: l "Come unto Me all ye that labor and} are heavy laden. and I will give you rest.' i I want rest; 1 am weary." The name' of Jesus saved him from delirium and he was restful and happy until the spirit} took its flight to God. I II. The prophecy. "it is written by the: prophets" (v. 5).
