ctures that the origin of the ideaof the dragon comes from some great saurianwhich once really existed. In early sculpture, as, for instance, on thewonderful Saxon capitals of the chancel archof Selham, Sussex, and on the Tournai fontat Lincoln Cathedral, the dragons tail some-times terminates in a head or heads.

The dragon is afraidof the tree, and flees to whichever side is not in 162
