The Arabians hud a tradition that
when the devil* started forth from hi?
own place to (lie garden of 'Eden he
was too laz.v to walk and begged nil
the animals, one after another, to car
ry him. All refused except the ser
pent-, which was then a quadruped aud
the most beautiful of ail beasts. Yield
Ing to the entreaties of Satan, the ser
pent took up the devil 011 Its back an?
carried him the rest of the way, no
one knows how far, and after the con
sequences of the devil's entry Into the
garden became apparent the angeli
were commanded to look up the ser
pent and punish it. so Michael cut ofl
Its legs, and It was doomed hence I
forth to travel about as best It could j
flat on the ground.
