The Coming Race

CHAPTER XII
11/14

Iva-zi, eternal goodness; Nan-zi, eternal evil.

Poo (from) enters as a prefix to words that denote repugnance, or things from which we ought to be averse.

Poo-pra, disgust; Poo-naria, falsehood, the vilest kind of evil.

Poosh or Posh I have already confessed to be untranslatable literally.

It is an expression of contempt not unmixed with pity.
