The SibyIIine Books.

1t Is recorded of Tarquin the Proud,
the seventh king of Rome. that al old
woman came to him with nine books,
which contained. she said, sacred ora
cles. She asked an enormous price for
them, and when the monarch refused
she flew into a rage, threw three of the
books into the fire and still asked the
same price for the remainder. The rtf-
Ter again refused. aud she %thereupon
threw three more into the fire and still
asked the same price for the three re-
naming. This so astonished the ru
Ter that he bought the three at the
price for which in the first instance he
might have had the nine. These were
the Sibylline books. long looked upon
by the Romans as divine oracles.
