You are very smart upon me, but what you say is very silly. What is it puts the see of Rome uf>on the relaxing the law for pro- hibiting eating of flesh, that has been observed for so many ages 1 Bu. Why, indeed, they have had a mind to do it a great while ago, and for ICETIIYOPHAGIA; OE, FISH-EATING. 259 this reason, that they think, as it really is, that the city is defiled by salt-fish mongers ; the land, the waters, rivers, air, and fire are infected, and all the other elements, if there be... any more, men's bodies corrupted and filled with putrid humours by the eating of fish ; from whence proceed fevers, consumptions, gouts, falling-sicknesses, leprosies, and what not of diseases. Fi. But, prithee, tell me, Hippocrates, how it comes to pass that in well-governed cities it is forbid to kill oxen and hogs within the walls of the city 1 for it would tend more to the healthfulness of the city if they were restrained from killing sheep in it too. Why is there a certain place appointed for butchers apart from others, but lest if they had liberty to rove about and settle anywhere, they should infect the whole city ?
