(add,) The phrase used in AEsop is `epimythion'which the Latin version renders Affabulatio. i. e. ఉపకధ: this will not do. The Ethica or moral books of the Greeks, Romans and Persians, as Plutarch, as `Plutarch'as Morals'and Sady's Gulistan are grossly immoral. Apuleius is called "replete with morality"-whereas `immorality'seems the fitter word. Some of the Niti volumes of the Bramins are (like Marmontel's `Moral tales') very far form morality, or decency.
