Further, to confirm that thefe Oracles ( as we faid) Tranflated into Greek by Perfqhs skilful in the Greek Phylbfophy, let us call to > mind that Berofius f introduced theWfrttngs of i the Chaldeans concerning Afironotiiy anfTWoJo- phy among, the Grecians 5 and that Jilluiri the '

Some argue that they are not Chaldaick, be- caulc many times accommodated to the Greek Styl» j but there are in them many fo harlh and exotick Expreflions, as dilcover them to be Ori¬ ginally foreign; and where they agree* in Terms with that which is premer to the Greek Phylo- fophy, we may lay of them as d Jqmblichus upon another occafion, (On the Writings that go under the Name of Hermes Trfimegifius)z.% they are publilhed under the name of Zoroafier, fo allb they contain the Dodrine of Zoroafier, though they frequently fpeak in the Style of the Greeks ; for they were Tranllated out of Chaldee into Greek by Perfons skilful in the Greek Philofophy.
