mountain and "the stable."

"Jebel Libin" is the great feature of the Tihamat-Balawiyyah; for
many days it will appear to follow us, and this is the proper
place for assigning its rank and status to it. About El-'Akabah,
the northern head of the Ghats or coast-range, we have prospected
the single chain of Jebel Shara'; the "Sa'ar of the tribes of the
Shasu" (Bedawin)[EN#35] in the papyri, and the Hebrew Mount Seir,
the "rough" or "rugged." Further south we have noted how this
tall eastern bulwark of the great Wady el-'Arabah bifurcates;
forming the Shafah chain to the east, and westward of it, in
Madyan Proper, the Jibal el-Tihamah, of which the Sharr is
perhaps the culmination. We have noted the accidents of the
latter as far as Dumayghah Cove, and now we descry in the offing
the misty forms--how small they look!--of the Jebel el-Ward; the
Jibal el-Safhah; the two blocks, south of the Wady Hamz, known as
the Jibal el-Ral; and their neighbours still included in the
Tihamat-Balawiyyah. Lastly, we shall sight, behind El-Haura, the
Abu Ghurayr and a number of blocks which, like the former, are
laid down, but are not named, in the Chart.

Beyond El-Haura the chain stretches southwards its mighty links
with smaller connections. The first is the bold range Jebel
Radwah, the "Yambo Hills" of the British sailor, some six
thousand feet high and lying twenty-five miles behind the new
port.[EN#36] Passing it to left on the route to El-Medinah, I
heard the fables which imposed upon Abyssinian Bruce: "All sorts
of Arabian fruits grew to perfection on the summit of these
hills; it is the paradise of the people of Yenbo, those of any
substance having country-houses there." This was hardly probable
