It seems possible that^ since French sailors are chiefly Bretons, these<br />

boatmen may have heard this tune at the French port <strong>of</strong> Pondicherry<br />

which is not far from Negapatam; if so, their treatment <strong>of</strong> it is<br />

interesting ;<br />

they have smoothed out the articulations <strong>of</strong> its rhythm,<br />

and bridged the leaps <strong>of</strong> the melody.<br />
