FLAMMAM. 



" Every translator ought to regard himself as a broker in the great intellectua 

 traffic of the world, and to consider it his business to promote the barter of the pro 

 duce of mind. For, whatever people may say of the inadequacy of translation, -it is 

 and must ever be, one of the most important and meritorious occupations in the greal 

 commerce of the human race." Goethe, Kunst und Alterthum.
