One OF the most Impressive things

taken from tho Pcrsian) over the gates
TO the front and rear Of the royal
palace, and proceed 10 usher in the
close of another day with discorrlant
blasts from ancient Persian trunpcts
and noisy bclaboring OF kettle and
snare drums. These musicians are
srraycd in fantastic scarlet cos
tunes not unlike tho dress OF
, fifteenth century jester, and
every evening Mt shutdown they repair
TO these bnla-khnmas and for the space
OF IN hour dispense music OF tho most
~incarthly character and volume. Tho
%trutnpets are sounding tubes OF brass,
1--WE or six feet long, and from long
practice and force OF lungs the tooters
till tho whole city with n fierce, brassy
