The weaver of tales, who now relates these adventures to modern readers, has chosen to deviate widely from the methods of the ancient story-tellers. He has combined various parts, as pleased his fancy, into one complete harmonious fabric, and, [vi]while he has retained much of the original warp and woof, he has added various and many colorings and connecting threads of his own invention.
