Excerpt from The Fall of Babylon: Its Prediction Not Anonymous At Belshazzar's feast, while the revelry is resounding through the palace, the enemy is already stealing into the city by the bed of the river; but even in that last night of the Chaldean kingdom, it is at the king's command, and not from his own impulse, that Daniel interprets the mysterious handwriting on the wall. He boldly reproves the king for the sins that had provoked the Most High to stretch out-the hand that wrote his doom over against the candlestick that lighted the banquet hall; but he neither invokes the Divine vengeance on Babylon, nor afterwards refuses the high honours with which the king proceeds to invest him. In the sequel, when the Chaldean dominion has been quite over thrown, and when he understands, by the Sacred Books, that the time has come for the restoration of Zion, he obeys the Lord's command by Jeremiah Then Shall ye go and pray unto me, and I'will hearken unto you, and I will turn away your captivity; and he sets himself to seek God by prayer and supplication for the desired deliverance. But he uses no other means except prayer when God's full time had come; and during the whole Chaldean dominion he never denounces the government under which he lived, and which he served for seventy years.
