There are few people so dull or so frivolous that they are not interested in the beginnings of human history. We all long at times for some Aladdin's lamp which shall enable us to thread our way through the fogs and mists with which time has shrouded the old story. The traditions of men have responded to this yearning in various ways, some allegorical and some prosaic; while in some, again, the too fantastic story has been worked over and made to look more reasonable by later hands.
