[80:2] This is seen from the following, taken from Pictet: "_Du Culte
des Carabi_," p. 104, and quoted by Higgins: _Anac._, vol. i. p. 650:
"Vallancy dit que _Ionn_ etoit le meme que Baal. En Gallois _Jon_, le
Seigneur, Dieu, la cause premiere. En Basque _Jawna_, _Jon_, _Jona_,
&c., Dieu, et Seigneur, Maitre. Les Scandinaves appeloient le _Soleil_
John. . . . Une des inscriptions de Gruter montre ques les Troyens
adoroient _le meme_ astre sous le nom de _Jona_. En Persan le _Soleil_
est appele _Jawnah_." Thus we see that the _Sun_ was called _Jonah_, by
different nations of antiquity.

"The story of Little Red Riding-Hood, as we call her, or Little Red-Cap,
came from the same (_i. e._, the ancient Aryan) source, and refers to
the _Sun_ and the _Night_."

"One of the fancies of the most ancient Aryan or Hindoo stories was that
there was a great dragon that was trying to devour the Sun, and to
prevent him from shining upon the earth and filling it with brightness
and life and beauty, and that Indra, the Sun-god, killed the dragon.
Now, this is the meaning of Little Red Riding-Hood, as it is told in our
nursery tales. Little Red Riding-Hood is the evening Sun, which is
always described as red or golden; the old grandmother is the earth, to
whom the rays of the Sun bring warmth and comfort. The wolf--which is a
well-known figure for the clouds and darkness of night--is the dragon in
another form. First he devours the grandmother; that is, he wraps the
earth in thick clouds, which the evening Sun is not strong enough to
pierce through. Then, with the darkness of night, he swallows up the
evening Sun itself, and all is dark and desolate. Then, as in the German
tale, the night-thunder and the storm-winds are
