Read the following passage and answer the questions 116-120.
m
The human species, according to the best theory I can form of, is
composed of two distinct races, the men who borrow, and the men Who
lend. To these two original diversities may be reduced to all those
se
impertinent classifications of Gothic and Celtic tribes, white men, black
men, red men. All the dwellers upon earth, "Parthians, and Medes, and
Elamites,” flock hither, and do naturally fall in with one or other of these
la

primary distinctions. The infinite superiority of a farmer, which I choose to
designate as a great race, Is discernible in their figure, port and a certain
instinctive sovereignty. The latter are born degraded “He shall serve his
ag

brethren.”There is something in the air of one of this caste, lean and
suspicious; contrasting with the open, trusting, generous manners of the
other.

classified into …. classes.
