FOOTNOTES:
[1] This alliance may be fanciful (though we observe some of the best German lexicographers have it so); a better origin might, perhaps, be found in the Sanscrit mri, etc.
[2] 'Les Orientals,' par Victor Hugo. Le Feu du ciel.
[3] The 'by' may, however, have the force of going or passing, equivalent to 'fare' in 'farewell,' or 'welfare,' i. e., may you have a good passage or journey.
[4] 'Past and Present,' pp. 128, 129.
[5] Compare with this the Latin mundus, which is exactly analogous in signification.
[6] En-voir.
[7] Perhaps nothing could better prove how profoundly religious were the Latins than a word compounded of the above; namely 'profane.' A 'fanatic' was one who devoted himself to the fanum or temple—'profane' is an object devoted to anything else 'pro'—instead of—the 'fanum,' or fane.
[8] The word is more properly oriental than Greek, e. g., Hebrew, pardes, and Sanscrit, paradêsa.
[9] See the Italian setvaggio and the Spanish salvage, in which a more approximate orthography has been retained.
