H I S T E Y OF THE CKUSADES. BOOK I. A.D. 300—1095. Eeom tlie earliest ages of tlie Church, a custom had been practised of making pilgrimages to the Holy Land. Judea, full of religious remembrances, "\A-as still the promised land of the faithful ; the blessings of heaven appeared to be in store for those who visited Calvary, the tomb of Jesus Christ, and renewed their baptism i-n the waters of the Jordan. Under the reign of Constantino, the ardour for they flocked from pilgrimages increased among the faithful ; all tlie provinces of the empire to worship Jesus Christ upon his own tomb, and to trace the steps of their God in that city which had but just resumed its name, and which the piety of an emperor had caused to issue from its ruins. The Holy Sepulchre presented itself to the eyes of the pilgrim.3 siu-rounded by a magnificence v/hich redoubled their veneration. An obscure cavern had become a marble temple, paved with precious stones and decorated with splendid colonnades. To the east of the Holy Sepulchre appeared the chm'ch of the Eesurrection, in which they could admire the riches of Asia, mingled with the arts of Greece and Bome. Constantine celebrated the thirty-first year of his reign by the inauguration of this church, and thousands of Christians came, on occasion of this solemnity, to listen to the paneg}Tic of Christ from the lips of the learned and holy bishop Eusebius.
