Japanese Temple with Priests
Additional Details:
| Japanese temples are of various shapes and sizes. It is said one of them contains 3,000 idols, most of which are rude images carved out of solid blocks of wood and heavily gilded. They are about three feet high and some possess many arms and hands, symbols of power and plenty. In many of these temples priests are continually writing on slips of paper the prayers of the worshipers who request that these petitions be pinned or pasted up in the sanctuary. |
