Most everybody has observed thu
strange characteristic OF the water
lily bud opening it's petals at sunrise
aud closing them again at sunset Il
was for this reason mainly that the
ancicnts held the water lily sacred tt

that Ia the Euphrates the flower OF
the lotus plunges into the water al
night, remaining there until midnight
and to such depth that IL cannot bs
reached with the hand. After mid
night IL begins gradually TO rise. ant
as the sun rises above the horizon th,
flower also rises above the water. cX
pands and raises itself some distanc,
above the element In which II grows.
IL was also through this pcculiarit,
that Hancarville proved that the Egyp
tlans considered the lily an emblem o
the world as IL rose from the water,
