Moreover, although the language is Celtic, that is to say, the vocabulary is so, yet the grammarreveals the fact that it is an acquired tongue. It is a comparatively easy matter for a subjugated peopleto adopt the language of its masters, so far as to accept the words they employ, but it is anothermatter altogether to acquire their construction of sentences. The primeval population belonged towhat is called the Hamitic stock, represented by ancient Egyptian and modern Berber. This peopleat a vastly remote period spread over all Western Europe, and it forms the subsoil of the Frenchnation at the present day.The constant relations that existed between the Hebrews and the Egyptians had the effect ofcarrying into the language of the former a number of Hamitic words. Moreover, the Sons of Israelwere brought into daily contact with races of the same stock on their confines in Gilead and Moab, and the consequence is that sundry words of this race are found in both Hebrew and Welsh. Thiswas noticed by the Welsh scholar Dr. John Davies, of Mallwyd, who in 1621 drew up a WelshGrammar, and it is repeated by Thomas Richards in his Welsh-English Dictionary in 1753. He says: "Ithath been observed, that our Language hath not a great many Marks of the original Simplicity of theHebrew, but that a vast Number of Words are found therein, that either exactly agree with, or maybe very naturally derived from, that Mother-language of Mankind.
