€T from tba QVABTBXI^T B
' We rejoice to notice that a second
series of these translations has been an-
nounced and has actually begun to appear.
The stones, at least, out of which a stately
edifice may hereafter arise, are here being
broDght together. Prof. Max Miiller has
deserved well of scientific history. Not
a few minds owe to his enticing words
their first attraction to this branch of
study. Bat no work of his, not even the
great edition of the Rig- Veda, can com-
pare in importance or in usefulness w^ith
this English translation of the Sacred
Books of the East, which has been devised
by his foresight, successfully brought so
far by his persuasive and organising
power, and will, we trust, by the assist-
ance of the distinguished scholars he h.is
gathered rouhd him, be carried in due
time to a happy completion.'
ProfoMior B. SA&DT, Zimiigiiral Z^otnro in the ValTendtarof FroHmr^, 1887.
