"Another event of the night of the nativity took place when the Qoraish were holding a festival in honour of one of their idols, in whose temple they had at that time assembled, and were engaged in eating and drinking. They found, however, that their god had fallen to the ground, and set him up again; but as he was, a short time afterwards, again found prostrate on his face, the idolaters were much dismayed and erected him again. When they had done so the third time, a voice was heard from the cavity of the idol saying: All the regions of the earth, in the east and west, Respond to the nativity, whom its light strikes; And idolatry decreases, and the hearts of all The kings of the earth tremble with fear."
