Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 March 2011
Extract
The writer desires to say something regarding the Vernacular Languages of Southern India; to urge upon Englishmen whose work lies there the value of their cultivation; to give some account especially of a certain department of Tamil literature; and to lay before English scholars a few specimens of what is believed to be unique among the productions of Oriental thought.

page 166 note 1 The Telugu has also a poetical work on moral subjects; ‘the verses of Vêmana’ ; but these are immeasurably inferior in all respects (except their wonderful—quite unequalled—rhythm) to the Kurraḷ, as any one can see who looks into the translation of Vêmana by the late Mr. C. P. Brown, the prince of Telugu scholars.
