There are many more affinities besides these between the Lapland and the Anglo-Saxon, which I omit, that I may not overburthen the attention of the reader. As the Laplandish is a branch of the Hunnish stock, which came latest into Europe, its affinities with the Saxon indicate a consanguinity from primeval ancestry which concurs with the rest to corroborate the ideas before mentioned of the original unity and subsequent dispersion of mankind.
