EXTRACT from the QUARTERLY REVIEW.

* We rejoice to notice that a second great edition of the Rig- Veda, can cornseries of these translations has been an- pare in importance or in usefulness with nounced and has actually begun to appear. this English translation of the Sacred The stones, at least, out of which a stately Books of the East, which has been devised edifice may hereafter arise, are here being by his foresight, successfully brought so brought together. Prof. Max Miiller has far by his persuasive and organising deserved well of scientific history. Not power, and will, we trust, by the assista few minds owe to his enticing words ance of the distinguished scholars he has their first attraction to this branch of gathered round him, be carried in due study. But no work of his, not even the time to a happy completion.'

The Upanishads contain the philosophy of the Veda. They have become the foundation of the later Veddnta doctrines, and indirectly of Buddhism.

It has been the solace of my life, it will be the solace of my death?
