thirdly^ there is the statement (accompanied by a table which 
partially verifies it) in the ^ Mithridates ’ that the Moxos and 
Maypure have several important elements in common. 
The following Tables are formed from a very slight col- 
lation, viz. from one with short specimens of Guiana lan- 
guages by Sir R. Schomburgk, and the equally scanty lists 
in D^Orbigny’s ^ Homme Americain.^ They are laid before 
the reader less on account of their own merits than for the 
sake of counteracting the common (but erroneous) belief that 
the South American tongues are wholly unconnected in re- 
spect to their vocabularies. The extent to which the commoner 
roots occur in difierent languages may be surmised from even 
so short a table as the subjoined.
