 * 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!
