Moreover, Mercury is represented in an excellent humor, and rallies Prometheus good-naturedly upon his tortures. Thus, Sec.6, he says, [Greek: eu echei. kataptesetai de ede kai ho aetos apokeron to hepar, hos panta echois anti tes kales kai eumechanou plastikes.] In regard to the place where Prometheus was bound, the scene doubtless represented a ravine between two precipices rent from each other, with a distant prospect ...

The bird repeated these words three or four times over, and then turned round on its perch, to all appearance terra cotta again. The effect produced upon ...
