Who is the giver of eternal life?

There is a mountain here, which towers far above the numerous ones surrounding. It is the Mount of Observation. 

An observatory crowns its summit. 

As you ascend the winding avenue you see the loveliest verdure dotted ever with flowers, trees, grottoes, fountains, cascades, dancing down to the base where beautiful lawns with many a gorgeous garden and home.

Here you can rest in many a sylvan retreat and lovely home of grand and magnificent beauty which tower above the surrounding scenery.

Oh! it is grand I assure you. At first it reminds you of the mountains of earth, so that for a moment, you feel like being back again, but the scenery so outrivals anything on the earth, that you again realise that you are truly in heaven. These retreats are those of the philosopher, the artist, in fact, all students of the grand, the glorious philosophy of life eternal. Also, here strangers are brought by guides to behold the glorious scene.
