FOOTNOTES

[1] Scattered traditions of the same events have been found in several nations. The most remarkable were in the writings of Berosus ([see note, p. 18]), who, to his account of the Creation, added that the monstrous living creatures which had floated in the darkness of the primeval ocean perished at the appearance of light. These must have been the pre-adamite animals which Geology has made known to us only within the present century. Berosus describes a deluge, from which only righteous men were saved.
