The Voyages of Sindbad (21)

The Voyages of Sindbad (21)  Second Voyage

  When I had looked about me I began to doubt if I had gained anything by quitting the desolate island.

  The valley in which I foun myself was deep and narrow, and surrounded bymountains which towered into the clouds and were so steep and rocky that there was no way of climbing up their sides.

  As I wandered about, seeking anxiously for some means of escaping fro this trap, I observed that the ground was strewn with diamonds, some of them of an astonishing size.

  This sight gave me great pleasure, but my delight was speedly dampened when I saw also numbers of horrible snakes so long and so large that the smallest of them could have swallowed an elephant with ease.
