APPEARANCE OF THE STAR TO THE WISE MEN.
"Suddenly, in the air before them, not farther up than a
low hill top, flared a lambent flame; as they looked at it, the
apparition contracted into a focus of dazzling lustre. Their
hearts beat fast ; their souls thrilled ; and they shouted as
with one voice; ' The Star! The Star! God is with us."' -Ben-
Hur, Book I. Chap. V.
