HISTORY OF MEXICO. 



351 



The cxceffive abundance of words of this nature has 

 been the reafon that the deepeft myfteries of religion 

 have been explained in the Mexican language without 

 great difficulty, and that forae books of the Holy Writ- 

 ings have been tranflated into it ; amongft which are 

 thofe of the Proverbs of Solomon, and the Apoftles ; 

 which like thofe of Thomas Kempis, and others, tranf- 

 lated into Mexican, could not have been done into thofe 

 languages which are wanting in terms of metaphyseal 

 and moral ideas. The books publifhed in Mexico on 

 religion are fo numerous, that of them alone might be 

 formed a large library. To this DifTertation we ftiall 

 add a fliort catalogue of the principal Mexican authors, 

 in gratitude to their labours, as well as to illuftrate 

 what we have advanced. 



What we have faid of the Mexicans, we may, in 

 great part, affirm alfo of the other languages fpoken in 

 the dominions of Mexico ; as there are Dictionaries and 

 Grammars of them, as well as of the Mexican, and trea- 

 tifes in religion have been publifhed in them all.
