The Mediterranean sunset is oho of the glories of the world. The sos Is a velvet blue. When evening cornea the olouda forsake the sky aad the sun takes oa the color of moiton gold, gilding the purple waters as the groat glowing disk approaches the level line of the hortson; wide waves of crimson Intervene across the asure heavens, and sea and sky leap together in s vivid embraoe of color. The sun vanishes, the sea turns from gold to silver, sad the sky grows crystal clear. Then night falls slowly down.
