Reading edition
Ægypt, and some of the eastern Nations, are celebrated for their Skill in polite Literature: both in Scripture and profane story: Job was of those Parts; so were the Σοφοὶ and Μάγοι, the Brachmans and Gymnosophists. Moses and Daniel had their Education in these Parts: And Pythagoras, Democritus, and others, travell’d into these Parts for the Sake of their Learning.
