It is doubtful if our Aryan ancestors when they were planting the seed of the English iiik I its sister languages thought of the scientific relations of what we call bent and cold, but they gave to IW the root "prus." which they got out of the seiisntions protluced by burning mid freezing, As usual. Aryan roois beginuitig with the "p" sound chnnge it to ”f” on the tongues of the Teuton; so with these our more beca ma modern ancestors “prus" "frus." and from It came our "freeze” and "frost." Again, us is usual, our Hindu brother in his Sanskrit usually [irisiTves the Aryan ”p" sound, so be bus from this root "prush." meaning Io burn. This root of freeze became “freosnn” In Anglo-Saxon, whii h Is our "frozen." In Icelandic 1» became "frjosa.” lu Swedish “fry«.

In the confusion the «bild was forgotten, and when the family and servants remembered him and started a search they found the nnr aery in ruins.
