A Dissertation on the Mysteries of the Cabiri, Vol. I

"...were saved in the deluge, when all the rest of that name perished^b. What you mention concerning the Cabiri appears to me very just: every point is confirmed by history. —I have written a great deal upon the gods of Greece and Rome, and upon the principal female deities, which may possibly be published after my death. It is of large amount, and aims at the same scope, to which you direct your present labours. I have also written concerning the several parts of the world, to which those of the dispersion betook themselves, which were widely separated and far distant: yet the identity of the original people may be plainly in all parts perceived."

I need scarcely observe, how great an acquisition to every serious believer in the truth of the Jewish Scriptures this promised work of Mr. Bryant will be.

^b This in reality is the whole that I contend for: namely, that all the diluvians were called Titans; that eight of those Titans were saved; and that the rest of mankind, namely the other Titans, miserably perished.
