Excerpt from The Verb in the Second Book in Gipuskoan Bask
Warned by Saint Paul that languages will pass away, and finding a special though melancholy interest in such which have ceased to be spoken, even as Cornish did in the last century, the Philologist ought to aim at preserving all that may still be found out about any which are in danger. Assyrian and Etruscan are interesting in much the same way as a collection of implements from the age of stone. But a language like Bask is important and instructive in the same way that the machinery of Signor Marconi, and his imitators and rivals, is. It is destined to convey the thoughts of men who will live in the twentieth century. It has some, however little, hope in it. The oldest known book in any of the dialects of a language that is threatened with death, such as Ainu, Finnish, Manx, Maori, Roumansch, or Wendish, deserves especial attention. For such a work shows us how the dialect was written in the most youthful period of its life of which we possess any record. It must be respected as an incunabulum. Bask, or Heushara, is in a state of decadence. I recognize it with sorrow. The Basks, or Heuskara-holders as they are called in their own speech, Heuskal-dunak, are responsible for this themselves, as two of their best writers in the eighteenth century, Cardaberaz and Larregi, boldly told them. The clergy are the chief culprits in the matter. They are now Heuskara-losers! If Heuskara he spoken and written a hundred years hence, I fear it will be so spoiled by a "corrupt following" of erdarisms, that it had better not have lived to be so old, and one might well chant to its memory the lilting lines of "the German Mezzofanti," Dr. G. I. J. Sauerwein, of the University of Goettingen, on The Death of a Language.
