When Daniel learned that the de-
cree had been issued ne went on his
way as IL nothing had happened. Spies
secreted in the neighhorhood OF his
house soon caught him in the act of
praying to his God. and his enemies
came rushing to the king With the
news. Darius, in great distress. made
earnest efforts to find some means of
evading the force of his decree, but
without success; and when, near the
close of the day, the eonspirators
came with the threatening reminder
that the laws of the Modes and Per
siaos changeth not, he gave way, and
ordered Daniel to be cast into den
of lions. The king thought TO com
fort the old prophet by assuring him
that the God whom he had so faith
fully served would take care of him :
but, being by no means sure OF II HIM
self. he spent q most miserable night
and at the first glimmer of dawn
fastened To the den. Daniel" cried
the wretched monarch. pitifully. An
other moment and his heart leaped
for JOY. The God whom Daniel served
had indeed preserved his servant
alive. And so another king was
brought to recognize, and to testify to
the power of tho God Of Israel.
