Excerpt from General Sketch of History Were One people, speaking one language. Sanscrit, the ancient language of India, Persian, Greek, Latin, Englisli, and other tongues, many of which we shall soon have occasion to speak of, are really only dialects of one common speech. They show their common origin alike by their grammatical forms, such as the endings of nouns and verbs and the like, and by what is more easily understood by people in general, by their still having many of the commonest and most necessary words, those words Without which no language can get on, essentially the same. N ow many of the nations which now speak these languages have for ages been so far parted from one another, that it is quite impossible that they cit have borrowed these words, and still less these grammatical forms, from one another. We can thus see that all these nations are really kinsfolk, that they once were only one nation, the different branches of which parted off from one another at a time long before written history begins.
