Sahject: “The Sundial of Ahaz"
TEXT: “And Isaiah the prophet cried
unto the Lord: and He brought the shad
ow ten degrees backward by whieh it had
gone down in the dial of Ahaz,”—11 King
xx, 11.
Here is the first cloct or wateh or chro.
nometer or timepiecs of which the world
has any knowleage. But it was a wateh
that did not tick and a clock that did not
strike. It was a sundial. Ahsz the king,
invented it. Between the hours given to
statecraflt and the cares of office he invented
of day. This sundial may have been a great
column, and whea thr shadow of that cul.
umn reacied one point it was nine o'cloo:
A. M., and when it raacaed another point it
was three o'cloes pr. M., and all the hours ani
half hours wert s> moansured. Or
be found in Hindostan and other old coun-
tries, and when the shadow reachsd one step
it was ten o'clock A. M., or anoher stop it
was four o'clock p. M., and lgewise other
hours may have been indicated,
The clepsydra or water clock followed the
sundial, anl the sauligiais followel the
ciepsydra, ‘Then came tue candle clock of
Altred the Great and the candle was marked
into three parts, and whils tae first part
was burning he gave nimsell to relizion and
while the second part was burninz he gave
himself to politics, and waiie the taird part
was burning he gave himself to ross. Arter
