Three hundred Aesop’s fables, Literally Translated From the Greek, sentence 105

Francis Vavassor,[15] a learned French jesuit, entered at greater length on this subject, and produced further proofs from internal evidence, from the use of the word Piræus in describing the harbour of Athens, a name which was not given till two hundred years after Æsop, and from the introduction of other modern words, that many of these fables must have been at least committed to writing posterior to the time of Æsop, and more boldly suggests Babrias as their author or collector.

Who acts: word, writing posterior · What happens: learn, enter, produce, describe, not give, commit · To what, where: learned French jesuit, greater length, further proofs, internal evidence, harbour, name
