shares   its   labours´   viz。�察  �Zi�察  �to   stay   or   repose。 Thus   Ya   enters   into   the 

future tense�察�and Zi in the preterite of all verbs requiring auxiliaries。                 Yam�察�

I shall go´ Yiam�察�I may go´ Yani´ya�察�I shall go ��literally�察�I go to go���察�Zam´ 

poo´yan�察�I have gone ��literally�察�I rest from gone��。                  Ya�察�as a termination�察�

implies by analogy�察�progress�察�movement�察�efflorescence。                    Zi�察�as a terminal�察�

denotes fixity�察�sometimes in a good sense�察�sometimes in a bad�察�according 

to the  word   with   which   it   is   coupled。     Iva´zi�察 �eternal goodness�察  �Nan´zi�察�

eternal     evil。    Poo     ��from��    enters    as   a  prefix    to   words     that   denote 

repugnance�察      �or   things   from    which     we   ought     to  be   averse。    Poo´pra�察�

disgust�察  �Poo´naria�察  �falsehood�察  �the   vilest   kind   of   evil。     Poosh   or   Posh   I 

have already confessed to be untranslatable literally。                  It is an expression 

of contempt not unmixed with pity。              This radical seems to have originated 

from  inherent   sympathy  between   the   labial   effort and   the  sentiment   that 

impelled it�察�Poo being an utterance in which the breath is exploded from 

the   lips   with   more   or   less   vehemence。     On   the   other   hand�察  �Z�察  �when   an 

initial�察�is with them a sound in which the breath is sucked inward�察�and thus 

Zu�察�pronounced Zoo ��which in their language is one letter���察�is the ordinary 

prefix   to   words   that   signify  something   that   attracts�察  �pleases�察  �touches   the 

heart´   as   Zummer�察  �lover�察  �Zutze�察  �love�察  �Zuzulia�察  �delight。         This   indrawn 

sound of Z seems indeed naturally appropriate to fondness。                        Thus�察�even 

in our language�察�mothers say to their babies�察�in defiance of grammar�察 �Zoo 

darling�察─�and I have heard a learned professor at Boston call his wife ��he 

had been only married a month�� ;Zoo little pet。; 

     I cannot quit this subject�察�however�察�without observing by what slight 

changes in the dialects favoured by different tribes of the same race�察�the 

original   signification   and   beauty   of   sounds   may   become   confused   and 

deformed。        Zee    told   me    with   much     indignation     that   Zummer      ��lover�� 

which   in   the   way   she   uttered   it�察  �seemed   slowly   taken   down   to   the   very 

depths of her heart�察�was�察�in some not very distant communities of the Vril´ 

ya�察�53vitiated into the half´hissing�察�half´nasal�察�wholly disagreeable�察�sound 

of   Subber。     I   thought   to   myself   it   only   wanted   the   introduction   of   'n' 

before 'u' to render it into an English word significant of the last quality an 

amorous Gy would desire in her Zummer。 

     I   will   but   mention   another   peculiarity   in   this   language   which   gives

equal force and brevity to its forms of expressions。 

     A is with them�察�as with us�察�the first letter of the alphabet�察�and is often 

used as a prefix word by itself to convey a complex idea of sovereignty or 

chiefdom�察  �or   presiding   principle。        For   instance�察  �Iva   is   goodness�察  �Diva�察�

goodness and happiness united�察�A´Diva is unerring and absolute truth。                          I 

have   already   noticed   the   value   of A  in A´glauran�察  �so�察  �in   vril   ��to   whose 

properties they trace their present state of civilisation���察�A´vril�察�denotes�察�as I 

have said�察�civilisation itself。 

     The philologist will have seen from the above how much the language 

of    the  Vril´ya    is  akin    to  the   Aryan     or  Indo´Germanic�察        �but�察 �like   all 

languages�察     �it  contains    words     and   forms    in  which     transfers    from    very 

opposite sources of speech have been taken。                  The very title of Tur�察�which 

they give to their supreme magistrate�察�indicates theft from a tongue akin to 

the Turanian。        They say themselves that this is a foreign word borrowed 

from a title which their historical records show to have been borne by the 

chief   of   a   nation   with   whom   the   ancestors   of   the   Vril´ya   were�察  �in   very 

remote periods�察�on friendly terms�察�but which has long become extinct�察�and 

they   say   that   when�察    �after  the   discovery   of    vril�察  �they   remodelled     their 

political institutions�察�they expressly adopted a title taken from an extinct 

race   and   a   dead   language   for   that   of   their   chief   magistrate�察  �in   order   to 

avoid all titles for that office with which they had previous associations。 

     Should life be spared to me�察�I may collect into systematic form such 

knowledge as I acquired of this language during my sojourn amongst the 

Vril´ya。     But   what   I   have   already   said   will   perhaps   suffice   to   show   to 

genuine      philological     students    that   a  54language       which�察   �preserving      so 

many of the roots in the aboriginal form�察�and clearing from the immediate�察�

but   transitory�察  �polysynthetical   stage   so   many   rude   incumbrances�察  �s   from 

popular ignorance into           that popular passion or ferocity which precedes 

its   decease�察  �as    ��to   cite   illustrations   from   the   upper   world��   during   the 

French      Reign   of   Terror�察  �or   for   the   fifty   years   of   the   Roman   Republic 

preceding the ascendancy of Augustus�察�their name for that state                      of things 

is Glek´Nas。 Ek is strife´ Glek�察�the universal strife。                Nas�察�as I before said�察�

is   corruption   or   rot�察  �thus�察  �Glek´Nas   may       be   construed�察   �the   universal

show later。

       This people have a religion�察�and�察�whatever may be said against it�察�at 

least it has these strange peculiarities�此�firstly�察�that all believe in the creed 

they profess�察�secondly�察�that they all practice the precepts which the creed 

inculcates。      They unite in the worship of one divine Creator and Sustainer 

of the universe。        They believe that it is one of the properties of the all´ 

permeating       agency     of  vril�察 �to  transmit     to  the   well´spring     of  life  and 

intelligence every thought that a living creature can conceive�察�and though 

they do not contend that the idea of a Diety is innate�察�yet they say that the 

An ��man�� is the only creature�察�so far as their observation of nature extends�察�

to   whom   'the     capacity   of   conceiving      that  idea��'   with   all  the  trains   of 

thought     which     open    out   from   it�察 �is  vouchsafed。      They   hold      that  this 

capacity is a privilege that cannot have been given in vain�察�and hence that 

prayer     and   thanksgiving       are   55acceptable      to  the   divine    Creator�察   �and 

necessary   to   the   complete   development   of   the   human   creature。             They

one   of   their   species�察  �I   was   not   admitted   into   the   building   or   temple   in 

which the public worship is rendered�察�but I am informed that the service is
