It ought never to enter simply as a deus ex maohina." i 1 Cauer, Die Kunst des Uebersetzens, p. 69. Note. — As a good illustration of what a translation ought not to be I might cite such a rendering as that given by Professor Max Miiller to Chandogya Upanishad, i, 1, 7. An exact translation of the original Sanskrit would run : " By that [syllable] the threefold knowledge ad- vances; CM he utters, cm he chauts, cm he sings, for the glory of that syllable because of its power and essence." Max Mi...iller translates : "By that syllable does the threefold knowledge (the sacrifice, more particularly the Soma^sacrifice, astounded on the three Vedas) proceed. When the Adhvaryu priest gives an order, he says Om. When the Hotri priest recites, he says Om. Wlien the Udgatri priest sings, he says Om, — all for the glory of that syllable. The threefold knowledge (the sacrifice) proceeds by the greatness of that syllable (the vital breaths), and by its essence (the oblations)." Such a " translation " is not a translation ; it is an interpretation so atufied with padding as even to obscure the sense of the passage.
