"What a brilliant dream that was of Napoleon's!" He expected to find a St. Jean D'Acre the treasure of the Pasha and arms for 3000,000 men. He then intended to raise and arm Syria, already waiting for the movement. He would then advance upon Damascus and Aleppo, recruit from a discontented country, arrive at Constantinople with his vast army, overturn the Sublime Porte, found a splendid Oriental empire, unsurpassed for magnificence, "fix his position with posterity," and come back to Paris, through Vienna, dragging a subjugated Austria in triumph at his chariot wheels." But Waterloo and St. Helena shattered his dream. Death made absolutely impossible what imprisonment made improbable. But arrest, imprisonment, scourging, crucifixion, death, cannot stop the victorious progress of the King, eternal, immortal, invisible. The glorious prediction made centuries before His advent in the world shall yet find its full and final accomplishment. "He shall see of the travail of His soul and be satisfied." "He shall have dominion from sea to sea, and from the rivers to the end of the earth." "Ye, all kings shall fall down before him. All nations shall serve Him." by Bishop Fallows
