Description
Invisible bells are ringing in the ears of the caravanners, and the apostate Parsee hears the bells ringing for the followers of Zoroaster to assemble for worship in the "fire temples" around the sacred altar; and he sees a pillar of fire shining before him on a hillock of sand, and in the lap of the wave of the desert he sees the bright waters of his boyhood invitingly shining. But these are the illusions of the desert the bells are the vibrations of the desert air, the pillar of fire is the sun's reflection, and the valley of water is a deceptive mirage.

The sun is glaring upon the earth like an angry God. (But will it lead them astray with illusions?)
