THE BIG PALACE, ATHENS 



white walls of the fortress church at its apex 

 might stand for some magic castle in a mediaeval 

 or Eastern legend ; and here in the foreground is 

 the wavy palm tree of the unchanging East, 

 while a sage-green flowing border to the grass 

 green lawn carries out the afternoon colour of 



the hillside.
