FROM CONSTANTINOPLE TO BATUM 51
In the evening wc weighed anchor and continued our
voyage to Batum. The country beyond the coast rises in
one ridge after another. The blue mountains inland showed
higher towards the east, and white peaks shone faintly far off
against the dim eastern sky where the bluish-purple segment
of the earth’s shadow was rising up and up, as the darkness
quietly enveloped us. Soon, under a blue-black vault with
a myriad worlds glittering in its night, wc were cleaving the
Black Sea on our way to Æca, the mist-born land of the red
dawn—Colchis.
