‘While you take in hand to school others, and to teach themby what name a whale-sh is to be called in our tongueleaving out, through ignorance, the letter H, which almost alone maketh the signication o the word, you deliver that which is not true.’ —HACKLUY ‘WHALE. … Sw. and Dan. HVAL. Tis animal is named romroundness or rolling; or in Dan. HVAL is arched or vaulted.’ —WEBSER’S DICIONARY ‘WHALE. … It is more immediately rom the Dut. and Ger. WALLEN; A.S. WALW-IAN, to roll, to wallow.’ —RICHARDSON’S DICIONARY KEOS, GREEK.

EXRACS (Supplied by a Sub-Sub-Librarian).It will be seen that this mere painstaking burrower and grub-worm o a poor devil o a Sub-Sub appears to have gone through the long Vaticans and street-stalls o the earth, picking up whatever random allusions to whales he could anyways nd in any book whatsoever, sacred or proane.Tereore you must not, in every case at least, take thehiggledy-piggledy whale statements, however authentic,in these extracts, or veritable gospel cetology. Far rom it. As touching the ancient authors generally, as well as the poets here appearing, these extracts are solely valuable or entertaining, as aording a glancing bird’s eye view o what has been promiscuously said, thought, ancied, and sung o Leviathan, by many nations and generations, including our own.
