with great deal of ceremony. They
wore straw hats with wide brims,
flower and ribbon trimmed; the brims
intended to keep the light from their

masks. They also often took off their

In their place a rough great-coat or
else wound leather bands about their
arms to protect the delicate lace and
hues of their coats from the soil of the
table.
AT each players side was small

of the players wore long curls. eye
glasses mounted on long sticks. were
