KING HEEoD THE GREAT.-Thc reign of Herod
the Great. OF whom mention is so often made in the
scriptures and who floGrishcd during the time of
our Saviour, was remarkable for domestic ca.ami-
fieg-the result Of his own ungovemablc temper.
Urged by suspicion. be put TO death his beloved
wife, her mother. brother grandfather uncle and
two sons. His palace the scene of inccssant
intrigue, misery, and boolshed-his nearest reIa-
lives being ever the chief Instruments Of his worst
suferings and pangs. The effects produced upon
the mind Of IIerod by the murder OF Marianne,
his wife, are thus powerfully described by Miman:
All the passions which filed the stormy soul OF
Iferod, were alike without bound from violent
love and violent resentment. he sunk into a violent
remorsc and despair. EVERYWHERE he was haunted
by the image of his murdered Mariamne; he called
upon her name; he pcrpetuaily burst INTO passion
ate tears. In vain he tried every dlversior-ban-
qlets, balls. rcyes, the excitemenfs OF society.
Sudden pestilence broke ont. to which many OF the
noblesi of his court and of his own friends fell
sacrifice he recognised and treInbled beneath The
avenging hand Of an angry God
The late Lord Byron in his " Hebrew Melodies,
thus describes Herod's lament over his wife:
''oh, Marianne now for thee
The heart for which thou ble;ist is bleeding
Revenge i lost iii agony
And wild rcmorse 10 rage succeeding;
oh. Marianne, where art thou
