Our accounts easie...r, and our pains for our crimes shall be less. * To my appre- hension, it is a sad record which is left by Athenaeus concerning jSinus the great Assyrian monarch, whose life and death is summed up in these words : ' Ninus the Assyrian had an ocean of gold, and other riches more than the sand in the Caspian sea ; he never saw the stars, and perhaps he never desired it ; he never stirred up the holy fire among the Magi : nor touched his god with the sa- cred rod according to the laws : he never offered sacrifice, nor worshipped the deity, nor administered justice, nor spake to the people ; nor numbered them : but he was most valiant to eat and drink, and having mingled his wines, he threw the rest upon the stones.
