OF THE ANCIENT EGYPTIANS.

1. THOSE Egyptians who live in the cultivated parts of the country, are, of all whom I have seen, the most ingenious, being attentive to the improvement of the memory, beyond the rest of mankind. To give some idea of their mode of life for three days successively in every month they use purges, vomits, and clysters; this they do out of attention to their health,

IONIC GREEK TO BE RENDERED INTO ATTIC.

1. ΑΥΤΩΝ δε δη Αιγυπτιων οἱ μεν περι την σπειρομένην Αι γυπτον οικεουσι, μνήμην ανθρωπων παντων επασκέοντες μάλιστ τα, λογιωτατοι εισι μακρα των εγω ες διαπειραν απικόμην. Τροπῳ δε ζοης τοιῳδε διαχρεωνται· συρμαΐζουσι τρεις ημερας επεξης μηνος ἑκαστου, εμετοισι θηρώμενοι την υγιειην και κλυσα μασι, νομίζοντες απο των τρεφοντων σιτίων πάσας τας νούσους

being persuaded that the diseases of the body are occasioned by the different elements received as food. Besides this, we may venture to assert, that, after the Africans, there is no people in health and constitution to be compared with the Egyptians. To this advantage, the climate, which is here subject to no variations, may essentially contribute: changes of all kinds, and those in particular of the seasons, promote and occasion the maladies of the body. To their bread, which they make with spelt, they give the name of cyllestis; they have no vines in the country, but they drink a liquor fermented from barley; they live principally upon fish, either salted or dried in the sun they eat also quails, ducks, and some smaller birds, without other preparation than first salting them; but they roast and boil such other birds and fishes as they have, excepting those which are preserved for sacred purposes.

2. At the entertainments of the rich, just as the company is about to rise from the repast, a small coffin is carried round, containing a perfect representation of a dead body; it is in size sometimes of one, but never of more than two cubits, and as it is shown to the guests in rotation, the bearer exclaims, "Cast your eyes on this figure: after death you yourself will resemble it; drink then, and be happy."-Such are the customs they observe at entertainments.

3. They contentedly adhere to the customs of their ancestors, and are averse to foreign manners. Among other things which claim our approbation, they have a song, which is also used in Phoenicia, Cyprus, and other places, where it is differently named. Of all the things which astonished me in Egypt, nothing more perplexed me than my curiosity to know whence the Egyptians learned this song, so entirely resembling the Linus of the Greeks; it is of the remotest antiquity among them, and they call it Maneros. They have a tradition that Maneros was the only son of their first monarch; and that, having prematurely died, they instituted these melancholy strains in his honour, constituting their first, and, in earlier times, their only song.

4. The Egyptians surpass all the Greeks, the Lacedæmonians excepted, in the reverence which they pay to age: if a young person meet his senior, he instantly turns aside to
