The importation of papyrus from Egypt had ceased ; cotton and linen paper were yet unknown in Europe, and parchment was costly and difficult of prepara- tion. The great libraries of Alexandria, of Rome, and of Constantinople had perished by fire ; and the illiterate monks knew just enough to efface the writing from the few valuable parchments in their libraries, and cover them anew with silly legends, the product of brains muddled with intoxicating liquors. The chemical skill of modern times ha...s enabled us to discharge the ink from many of these falim]3sests^ and restore the classical works so ruthlessly destroyed.
