To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

" Histor. 1. 1. P. 10. Ed. 1625. It is a remark of Reland in his chapter on Tycta (De Vet. Ling. Persar. P. 255) that this Persian festival was probably the origin of that celebrated by Herod on his birthday ; and his corresponding promise to the daughter of Herodias, recorded by the two Evangelists, seems to confirm this idea. St. Matthew, c. 14. V. 6. & St. Mark, c. 5. V. 21. Reland is convinced of it, and thus exclaims, " Quis non videt vestigia hujus rit^s Persici in facto Herodis V Dissert...atio 8, p. 258. (1713. ) THE PERSIAN HEROINE. 35 N° 30.
Thou wilt indulge Amestris with a boon By Eastern custom and by Persia's law Irrevocably fix'd ? Verse 436".
This request of Amestris is founded on Herodotus, but the object of it in the sequel of the drama is diversified from the account of the Historian, where it occurs in his Calliope, or book the ninth (c. 107 to 113). Plutarch records the Persian custom of demanding a gift, and the obligation, that the donor should con- sent to confirm the engagement at all events.
