Soror, “a sister,” Cum. Chwaer, Corn. Hor, the Latin form without the termina- 
tion, Germ. Schwester. Italian Suora, where the aspirate still seems to have a 
place. But this head is inexhaustible. 
Sons, Sortis, Sortes, “lot, chances.” That which falls out, id quod accidit, Cum. 
Syrth and Swrth, “a fall, a lot, a chance,” from the verb Syrthio, to fall. In 
Corn. Swrth would be written “ sort.” 
I am now compelled by want of room to conclude, and to

cal connection of the Latin and Cumrian languages, these are, 
Meenia, “ walls,” and Prada, “ a prey.” 
And first of the first. Moenia, “walls,” sing. Moene, from the 
Cum. Men, “a stone,” plural, Meini “stones.” If this be the root, 
Mecenia must signify stone-walls, in opposition to wooden de- 
fences or earthen-ramparts. These were expressed by Vaiium,
