DANIEL IN THE DEN OF LIONS After Briton Riviere's painting by Jas.Bealings
D ARIUS,king of Persia,made many princes rulers of different parts of his kingdom.
Over them he set Ulree presidents,of whom Daniel,a Jewish prophet,was first.
Daniel had performed many miracles and commanded the admiration of every-
body.But the Persian officials were jealous of Daniel,seeking to destroy him,through
his religion and the prejudices of the king.So the king was persuaded to set up many
graven gods,with orders that everybody,without exception,should worship them and
should pray to none other.But Daniel prayed to the God of Israel,where he could be
seen,and therefore was arrested.So the king,regretfully,ordered him thrust into a den
of lions,hoping that the God of the Israelites would protect him.Daniel was miracu·
lously saved from the lions.We see in this picture Daniel among the lions,standing
erect,dignified,and with his hands bound behind his back.One lion,the king of the
den,s1ands erect but hesitating.Another great animal crawls on his abdomen,showing
his teeth.There is a very old beast who looks on questioningly;so they cringe and
snarl,but let Daniel alone.JAMES W.PATTISON.
