Book excerpt: Excerpt from Mongolia, the Tangut Country, and the Solitudes of Northern Tibet, Vol. 2 of 2: Being a Narrative of Three Years' Travel in Eastern High Asia The sparkling surface of Djaratai-dabas appears like water in the distance, and resembles ice when you are near it. So deceptive is its appearance that a flock of swans, apparently attracted by the sight of water in the desert, descended before our very eyes almost to the surface of the false lake, but discover ing their mistake rose again in the air with affrighted cry, and continued their flight.
