Psalms143:6

My soul thirsteth after thee, as a thirsty land. Sir John Chardin, in his MSS. says: —"The lands of the East, which the great dryness there causes to crack, are the ground of this figure, which is certainly extremely beautiful; for these dry lands have chinks too deep for a person to see the bottom of: this may be observed in the Indies more than anywhere, a little before the rains fall, and wherever the lands are rich and hard." —Harmer's Observations.
