VERSE 19 
 - Babylon.
  Babylon, whose destruction and utter ruin are here predicted,
  was situated in the midst of a large plain, having a very
  deep and fruitful soil, on the Euphrates, about 252 miles
  south-east of Palmyra, and the same distance north-west of
  Susa and the Persian gulf, in lat. 32ø 30' N. and long. 44ø
  20' E.  According to Herodotus, it formed a perfect square,
  each side of which was 120 stadia, and consequently its
  circumference 480 stadia, or sixty miles; inclosed by a wall
  200 cubits high, and fifty wide, on the top of which were
  small watch towers of one story high, leaving a space between
  them, through which a chariot and four might pass and turn.
  On each side were twenty-five gates of solid brass; from each
  of which proceeded a street, 150 feet broad, making in all
  fifty streets; which, crossing each other at right angles,
  intersected the city into 676 squares, extending four stadia
  and a half on each side, along which stood the houses, all
  built three or four stories high, and highly decorated
  towards the street; the interior of these squares being
  employed as gardens, pleasure grounds, etc.  Its principal
  ornaments were the temple of Belus, having a tower of eight
  stories, upon a base of a quarter of a mile square; a most
  magnificent palace; and the famous hanging gardens, or
  artificial mountains raised upon arches, and planted with
  large and beautiful trees.  Cyrus took it by diverting the
  waters of the Euphrates, which ran through the midst, and
  entering by the channel; and the river being never restored
  to its proper course, overflowed the whole country, and made
  it a morass.  Darius Hystaspes afterwards depopulated the
  place, lowered the walls, and demolished the gates; Xerxes
  destroyed the temples; the building of Seleucia nearly
  exhausted it of its inhabitants; a king of the Parthians
  carried a number of them into slavery, and destroyed the most
  beautiful parts; so that modern travellers describe it as a
  mass of shapeless ruins, the habitation of wild beasts.
