In India, George Grierson has seen a vision of magnificent literature enshrining the thoughts of great men from generation to generation through 3000 years. He has been able to stroll through enchanted gardens of poesy, beginning with the happy, through great epics, through the magic of Indian dramas and consummates word-witchery of Kalidasa, through the lyric poetry of the Indian reformation, through the heart melody to Tulsidasa, down to the distiches of Biharilal.
Truth he has gathered from many a tree of knowledge, from the ripe Pandit, strong in his mission, acute in thought, crystal clear in his exposition, and from the simple peasant chanting in his rude, patois under the village tree, steeped in the deepest superstition and quick with a living faith in the fatherland of God.
The languages of India have from the earliest times been an object of interest to those that spoke them but their serious study is not more than 400 years old. Throughout the wide extent of Hindustan, many are the dialects that are spoken and the diversities of those, that do not exclude a common intelligibility, are innumerable. A mission surveyed the Indian languages with the cooperation of several eminent scholars of that time.
This part contains 168 English words or grammatical forms, each translated into 364 languages and dialects. It is so arranged that all the equivalents of each English word will be found on two pages facing each other. It is intended in this way to facilitate the comparison of the different languages. The author has endeavoured to arrange some of the more important facts shown by the Survey in a form that will make reference easy for the those interested in comparative philology.
