I have, however, seen a picture which merely shows the •MO ASCENT OF ADAMS PEAK.
sunset sliadow of the mountain on the eastern sky — not at :ill a triangle. From the summit of Mount Omei, the holy mcnintain of the Chinese Buddhists, a very peculiar shadow is sometimes seen, capped by a marvellous prismatic halo, which is known as the " Glory of Buddha. " Occa- sionally, when the shadow of Adam's Peak falls on mist, the spectral shadow seems to stand upright, taking the conical form of the mount...ain, and a rainbow-girt halo rests on its summit.
One traveller only, so far as I am aware, has had the f'ood fortune to see this wonderful shadow as a moonlight phenomenon, which, of course, could only occur when an almost full moon was very near the horizon, either rising or setting. This fortunate observer was Lawrence Oliphant, whose description of the scene is so striking that again I cannot refrain from quoting his words.
" By the light of a moon a little past the full, in the early morning, I looked down from this isolated summit upon a sea of mist, which stretched to the horizon in all directions, completely concealing the landscape beneath me.
