Note 207 — Chapter XIX · LITURGICAL PLAYS (continued)
Reading edition
Sepet, xxviii. 219, suggests that Balaam, when first introduced into the Prophetae, merely prophesied, as he does in the Adam (Grass, 46). Possibly, yet his introduction at the end of the Laon play (unknown to Sepet) looks as if he were an appendix for the sake of his ass.
