Excerpt from The Life of Cyrus Danie], who was in the first band of Hebrew captives sent to Babylon, then in early youth, as he survived through the whole period Of the captivity, was the compeer and minister of Cyrus, and mentions him in the record of history and prophecy which bears his name. We only learn, however, that he succeeded Darius in the new empire which rose upon the ruins of the Babylonian, and that, under both sovereigns, the illustrious Jew, distinguished by the fallen dynasty, was continued in his office of grand vizier, or supreme head of the pashas, his last prophetic vision, on the banks of the Hiddekel, or Tigris, dating in the third regnal year of Cyrus.
