Of\ncourse, there are other things in the narrative (Plato's cave). Perhaps\nthose dubious of the parallels to the gospels should call up the archives\nand interact with my points. At this point, at least, I'd have to say that\none is straining at a gnat and swallowing a camel to prefer Moses to Jesus\nas narrative background.\n\nOn Cant:\n\n\tYea! I was in one of those discount books stores, and found \"The\nWordsworth Dictionary of the Underworld\" by Eric Partridge (shelved with\nlots of other paperback Wordsworth dictionaries). For $2.99. So I looked up\n\"dimber,\" and there it was! And \"shag\" and \"cully\" too. So I bought it.\n\tI ain't got the time to re-read the four novels right now and look them\nall up. So:\n\tA. You might want to try and track down this volume for yourself; and/or\n\tB. If somebody is re-reading and wants to make a list of terms, I'll look\nthem up in my dictionary and post what they mean. That is: YOU re-read the\nbook and make the list, and I'll give you the definitions.\n\nNutria"
