Always amazing was his inexhaustible memory and the ease
with which he recalled episodes, placing personages in their proper positions,
with all their particulars of names, backgrounds and degrees of relationship.
It was like reliving the spellbound days of my childhood when my aged and
learned tutor would narrate the legendary feats of Greek mythology, with gods
and people brought alive by his fascinating word pictures.
