Of the ancient Druids, their Philosophy, Discipline, Derivation, and Etymology.
THE first account of every nation in the World that of the Jews only excepted, is involved in .fable and obscurity; nor can that of any people be more obscure or more fabulous than that of the Druids; yet it must at the same time be owned, that even sable itself is sometimes only truth disguised; and why the fabulous account of Druids may not be originally founded in truth, or be truth disguised, I leave to the determination of those who have allowed the origin and history of the Romans and Greeks to have been true in the main, though involved in obscurity, andteeming with fiction.-
