Note 2 — INDEX
Reading edition
De Groot refers to a “venerable” Chinese dragon living in a pond; it had nine heads and eighteen tails, and “ate nothing but fever demons”. The Religious System of China, Vol. VI, p. 1053. Another dragon is 1000 miles long; his breath causes wind; when he opens his eyes it is day, and when he closes them it is night. De Visser, The Dragon in China and Japan, p. 62. ↑
