There is a river Rea in Shropshire and a second river Rea upon which stands _Bir_mingham: that this Rea was connected with the Candian Rhea is possible from the existence at Birmingham of a Canwell, or Canewell. Near Cambourne, or Cam_bre_, is the _rhe druth_ (Redruth) which the authorities decode into stream of the Druids. Running through the village of _Ber_riew in Wales, is a rivulet named the Rhiw, and rising on _Bar_don Hill, Leicestershire, is "the bright and clear little river Sence". As the word _mens_, or _mind_, is usually assigned to Minerva, Rhea was possibly the origin of _reason_, or St. Rhea, and to _Rhi Vera_ may be assigned _river_ and _revere_; a _reverie_ is a _brown_ study. According to Persian philosophy the soul of man was fivefold in its essence, one-fifth being "the Roun, or Rouan, the principle of practical judgment, imagination, volition":[470] another fifth, "the Okho or principle of conscience," seemingly corresponds to what western philosophers termed the _Ego_ or _I myself_. In the neighbourhood of Brough in Westmorland is an ancient cross within an ancient camp, known as Rey Cross, and that Leicester or Ratae--which stands upon the antique _Via Devana_ or Divine Way--was intimately related with the Holy Rood is obvious from the modern Red Cross Street and High Cross Street. The ruddy _Rood_ was no doubt radically the rolling four-spoked wheel, felloe, felly, periphery, or brim, and although perhaps Reading denoted as is officially supposed, "Town of the Children of Reada," the name Read, Reid, Rea, Wray, Ray, etc., did not only mean ruddy or red-haired. I question whether Ripon really owes its title as supposed to _ripa_, the Latin for bank of a stream. The town hall of Reading is situated at Valpy Street in Forbury Gardens on what is known as The Forbury, seemingly the _Fire Barrow_ or prehistoric Forum, and doubtless a holy fire once burned ruddily at Rednal or Wredinhal near Bromsgrove. In Welsh _rhedyn_ means _fern_, whence the authorities translate Reddanick in Cornwall into the ferny place: the connection, however, is probably as remote and imaginary as that between Redesdale and reeds.
