VII. Tix Jiornu Laifgunge,’~'T\\\\'ty languages are said to be spoken in 
the kingdom of Boimu. It is difficult to find room for them. The propef 
Bornu is conterminous with the Tibboo on the north, the Howssa on the wnst 
and the Mamlara (and probably others) on the south. The Bedie of the waps 
is probably the AliafJeli of the Mitliridates ; and, if so, is a dialect of ibn 
Bornu. 'ilu; Bornu vocabularies are—
