Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Sakuntala, or the Fatal Ring: A Drama; To Which Is Added Meghaduta, or the Cloud Messenger; The Bhagavad-Gita, or Sacred Song
The centre from which the various branches of the indo-european family emigrated is placed by scientists, generally, in Central Asia, to the north of India. One branch, the Aryans, wended its way from the high plains through the passes of the north-west of India, and settled in the country known as the Punjab, and it is from this ancient race that the Hindus are descended.
