Note 470 — LXXXVIII. SPIRITUALISTIC SÉANCES.
Herbert Allen Giles translation
See No. LXXIII., note 418. Chang Fei was the bosom-friend of the last, and was his associate-commander in the wars of the Three Kingdoms. Chou Kung was the first Emperor of the Chou dynasty, and a pattern of wisdom and virtue. He is said by the Chinese to have invented the mariner’s compass; but the legend will not bear investigation. return to text
