II to IA of the above mentioned chap

tradition inclines to an agreement
that the Tigris and the Euphrates of
modern geography are the third ano

who agree so far differ widely as to
what rivers should now be regarded
as the ancient PisOn and GihOn. The

that they are correct on that point,

says that Gihon 'compasseth IL

Eden was a spot of comparatively
