Has any Roman or Greek author described it ? Did Phoenicius understand the language of the people ? Have the hot springs any medicinal value ? These and fifty more questions are asked of Ph(£nicius with eager inquiry, and answered THE NOVIOMAGIANS 87 by him with his natural courtesy and keen intelhgence. Why should a common soldier of tlie army, one who is not even a centurion, want to know so many things about the distant northern island? The soldier is set down as a very intel- ligent soldier.... ' Are all the soldiers who serve in the body-guard of C^sar as interested in these subjects of travel as yourself?' inquires the Lord High of his guest. ' Not all, but some are ? ' * They reflect the mind of their Imperial master, ' continues the innocent speaker. The guest reddens, and Eufus pales. The conversation is getting uncomfortably warm. ' Ask him to sing, ' suggests Rufus as a diversion ; ' he has a good voice, and is fond of the art. ' The Lord High President is charmed with the idea, and in a moment or two is able to tell the citizens that amongst the other ac- complishments of the Csesar of Eufus there is a voice that can sing.
