but no more so than many wiser ones
since his time. According to the le-
gend, Twashtri, the Vulcan of Hindu
mythology, created the world, but when
he arrived at the final object which
was to be his chef d'oeuvre he found
to his annoyance that he had run out
Of materials. He had not single
chunk OF solid matter left:
With a mental execration upon his
carelessness he fell into a profound
meditation, the result of which was
that he took "the roundness Of the
moon, the undulating curves OF the
serpent, the graceful twist of the
creeping plant, the light shivering OF
the grass blade and the slenderness of
the willow, the yelyety softness OF
the flowers, the lightness OF the feath-
er, the gentle gaze of the doe, the
frolicsome Of the sunbeam, the tears
of the cloud, the Inconsistency OF the
wind, the timidity Of the hare, the van
ity OF the peacock, the hardness OF
the diamond. the cruelty Of the tiger,
the heat ct the fire. the chill of the
snow, the cackling OF the parrot and
the cooling Of the turtle dove"
He mixed these together in equal
proportions. and the result was woman.
