     * The broad walls of Babylon.  or, The walls of broad Babylon.
       According to the testimony of Herodotus, the circumference of
       the walls of Babylon was 480; stadia, or 60; miles, their
       breadth 50; cubits, and their height 200; cubits; but when
       Darius became master of the place, B.C. 516, he took away all
       their 100; gates of brass, and beat down their walls to 50
       cubits; and now not a vestige of these immense fortifications
       remains, to mark the site of this once mighty city!
