thousands of years they have climbed and crawled
over the frowning mountains. Religion too has cast
its spell over the minds of men, to send them across
these uplifted sands and snows, some uttering the
battle-cry of Mohammed, some chanting Buddha's
peaceful name. And after the fever of it all reigns
Icy Death.
It was the chill hand of night which drew us into
the unwonted life of Camp Sasar, the bourne to
which our Kirghiz led us, the term of their travel,
the limit of the camel's usefulness. Here were en-
closures, unroofed walls of stone, mute prophecies
of return to the world of man. The lune, the demi-
lune of brooding nature's refuge were now taken; it
remained to storm the citadel's self,— the bleak
heights of snow and ice which put a cruel crown on
Sasar's head. It had been hard to understand Ach-
bar's report of this strange sentinel-post of com-
merce. We had learned that it was a point of
exchange and of deposit for goods of all kinds, but
that, save for the passing caravan men, it was still
"Adam Yok." How can precious bales be left,
guarded only by the untenanted rocks? Yet so it
is—opium lies here in many two-hundred-pound
masses—left by Kirghiz or Turkestan's caravans
which turn backward to the north, taking with them
bales of silk or cotton, which, perhaps a month
before, were here deposited by some yak caravan,
shuttling between Leh and Sasar. Meanwhile
caravans have come and have gone, "through"
caravans of ponies paying tribute of dead to the
mountain spirits, and "shuttle" caravans of camels
working between Sasar and the north.
