Kissing the Feet

The custom Of kissing the reet Of
persons whom it was desired to honor
originated with the ancients. The peo-
pie Of oriental nations used to kiss the
hands and feet or hens Of the clothes
Of the persons they wished to show
respect for. The ancient Egyptians got
this custom from the Assyrians, and
later the Greeks adopted the habit
from the Egyptians. The Romans fol
lowed the Greeks, and then Pontifex
Maximus had his great toe kissed By
celebrities. The toe OF the sultan Of
Turkey Is kissed BY subje OF high
rank. Those Of more lowly position
are merely allowed to touch the fringe
OF his garment to their lips, and the
poorest classes must be content To
make low obeisance In his presence.
