Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Antonius: A Dramatic Poem The nation of all the Gauls is very much given to superstitious rites; and on that account they who are afflicted with grievous dis eases, and they who are engaged in battles and dangers, either immolate human beings as victims, or vow that they will immolate them, and they employ the Druids to perform these sacrifices; for, unless a mans life be given for the life of a man, they think it impossible to propitiate the mind of the immortal gods, and they have sacrifices of that kind ordained for national purposes... This system is thought to have been devised in Britain, and thence transferred to Gaul. And now those who wish to know it more accurately generally go thither for the sake of learning it.
