Excerpt from Illuminated Manuscripts: Their Origin, History and Characteristics; A Sketch AN Official in one of our Cathedrals is stated* to have described himself as being the dean's Verger, and that his duty was to supersede the dean when he goes to his stall. The few words now employed about language and art is to do, for the matter in hand, what the verger meant was his duty to the Dean, to precede and clear the way. The Greeks, among other legends, about the origin of language, had one that writing was a gift that came down from heaven, ready formed and savages on seeing its use for the first time have acted as if the paper were alive, and possessed the power of sight and speech.
