TRAVELERS’ TALES.
The Blunders In Books That Describe |
Foreign Countries.
A lively article on the amusing mis
the London Academy. The author in
veferring to the blunders often made
in books that describe
of the manners and customs of strange
peoples or deliberate imposition by his
informants are both supposed to have
given a somewhat fabulous character
to some parts of the writings of Herod-
otus. He quotes these lines, which he
found written on his desk when he
was attending lectures at Oxford:
Herodotus, Herodotus,
You could not gpell, you ancient cuss,
The priests in Egypt gammoned you.
It was not very hard to do
But don’t you think you'll gammon us,

The author adds; “The second line is
presumably a reference to the spelling
of Ionic Greek. What follows alludes
to the story of the Nile issuing from
between the mountains Cr

that many of his narratives once
