In tho'uld verston it renday “Vor now wo seu through 0 ginss dark ete., which moans, If It means anything, that kee as if wo were Jouking through nu piece of smoked or othorwisa obscured plas, 4 very absurd thought taken In connection with the whole passngo, .

The next error lied In maling an adverbial pornse of “on alulgmath,” and transtating It © darkly.” “Ku atntgmatoon,” the plural, sometimes has this usc, and is an idiom. of the language, the Rcuitive plural being used, and yut tho dative singular with the preposition eu." ‘Tho use of tho preposition "en" with the genitive ts not tho same .usits uso with the dative, and tho two ‘uses must not be confounded.
