Excerpt from The Chinese Repository, Vol. 7: March 1839
In marvellous tales the Chinese Budhists are not outshone by their brethren from the south. From thence, however, they received the material for these stories, and all they did.was to embellish them to make them palatable to the Chinese taste. As there have been poets amongst every nation, fabling and fancying according to their heart's desire, it would be extraordinary, if the celestials had not to boast of similar ornaments to literature. In many cases, however, as in the present, it is strange, that prose is more poetical in ideas, than some poetry in rhyme. We may safely say, that many passages of the present work, if put under the forge of a Chinese Hesiod, might be changed intoe theogan-y equally rich as that of the Greeks.
