^ (T. W., p. 14), tfi^ diverging. 



It is hardly credible that so many resemblances to our guttural 

 script are all accidental, and if we compare the tsau lu^ with the 

 corresponding cai fu^ and hi,g fu characters, we shall find sufficient 

 similarity to warrant the belief that these forms originated with the 

 Chinese. 



"^ (T. W., p. 144), li', )^ (T. AV., p. 147), liu', 

 CT— "^ an emperor. ' i ^ to linger.

'*2_ (T. AV., p. 267), tssi, a child. The name, form, and pho- 

 (j netic value of this character, are all pretty well retained in

L (T. W., p. 241), tu^, the earth. The resemblance of this 



^^ character to the Arabic figure 2 is the more interesting from 



the fact that the root tu^ or du^, signifying division, is found in the 



Chinese tvan, to cut; tvi^, a pair; Sanscrit dva^, dvi^, two; Greek 



ducD'j Latin duo; English two.
