Draw the outline of the bottom of a horse's hoof and you have a form closely resem- bling the leaf of the lotus lily. This story is also an example of the high regard in which the Oriental holds his horses. Colour 50 RUGS IN THEIR NATIVE LAND also had a language of its own and symbol- ized a definite thing to the ancients, as blue represented immortality to the Egyptians. It is related that when Athena wove into the sky the enchanting picture of flowers and gardens, mountain heights and the mig...hty beings who dwelt in the clouds with Jupiter, she took for her materials and colours the golden sunbeams that gilded the mountain top, the snowy fleece of the sum- mer clouds, the blue ether of the summer sky, the bright green of the summer fields, and the royal purple of the autumn woods. The early weavers in the East, the land of the Arabian nights so full of imagery, may have had some such poetic vision which enabled them to combine the varying shades of a few colours in so marvellous a manner as to make exquisite pictures out of the common forms of life about them.
