FOUR IN OLD PERU.
FUNERAL TORTURE.
Th* Mystic Number About Which Can
tered All Thair Baiiafa.
The Peruvians cared nothlDg for any
of tbe supposed mystic properties of
either three, five or seven. To them
tbe four was sscred. and around It
they Intwtued the main features of
all tbeir religious ceremonies and
queer beliefs. They believed tbe earth
j to be a square divided into four part*
nnd sus|>ended from the heaven* by
' four cords, one at each of tbe four
¡corners. All of their cities were quar
tered by four principal streets running
from a square Io tbe center. They
( held four annual feasts in honor of
tbe moon. the "silver sister of tbe
sun."
To them eternity was to be divided
Into four periods of time, each com
posed of four times 4.000 years, and at
tbe end of each of these cycles tbe sun
was to be blotted out of existence. They
prayed to the four winds, or to "ye
, gods that dwell at tbe four corners of
1 tbe earth.” To them the rains came
from four enormous heavenly turtles
that vomited dampness, nud tbe four
winds from tbe lungs of tbe four gl-
gautlc caryatids which stand at tbe
four cardinal points of paradise. Tbe
j above are but a small portion of the
: fours alluded to In tbe legends of the
Incas.
