INDIAN FABLE LITERATURE

A Paper Read Before the Hamilton Association, Hamilton, Canada, Jan. 9th, 1890Of this extensive field, the comparatively small portion over which I ask the favour of your company, is that of Indian fable literature. In our ramble over, this corner, we may find but wayside wild flowers, modest and insignificant compared with the sublime beauty of the Vaidic Hymns, or the majestic descriptions of the Epic Poems but we shall find them graceful after their own fashion, and no more to be despised, than the wild-thyme and violets, which give fragrance to an English lane, are to be slighted, because there are richer flowers.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
