spoons, but the common people ate
with their fingers. You helped your.
self from the general dish with your
own spoon II you had one, but II you
we're very, very fastidious you licked
che spoon clean first. The food was
queer-rich, rank food-swans. herons,
PROPOSES, garlic, verjuice, saffron.
There was mead and wine In floods
and ushe1s stood about whose duty
It was to lead to convenient couches
such guests as had dined too well.
These ushers. being oyerworked, were
continually striking for more pay. The
hours were queer, too. Breakfast
