Abstract
IT is not difficult to imagine how Herculean must have been the effort of the writer of the article in NATURE of August 26 under the above heading, to curb his pen. One realises the strength of mind required to put firmly on one side “La Semaine” of Guillaume de Saluste, Sieur du Bartas (1578); the “De Laudibus Dei” of Blossius Æmilius Dracontius (Fifth Century) and the many references in Dr. Charles Singer's works on oriental science.
