OF the many extraordinary drinks
regularly consumed the blood Of live

most SO. Marco Polo and Carpini were
the first to tell the world Of the practice
Of the Tartars and Mongols opening the

drink and closing the wound again. As
far as can be seen this has been the
practice from time immemorial.
There is a wine habitually consumed
in China which is made from the flesh
Of lambs reduced to paste with milk or
