139 ページ - Then the master of the house takes his seat, his wife sitting by his side, at the circular tray ; and stripping his arms quite bare, by turning back the sleeves of his tunic towards his shoulders, he serves out the soup and the meat. Only one dish is placed upon the table at the same time. If it contain butcher's meat or poultry, he tears it into pieces with his fingers. During meals, the meat is always torn with the fingers.

122 ページ - Helicon, the solitudes of which are in the highest degree beautiful : every declivity of the mountain is covered with luxuriant shrubs, or tenanted by browsing flocks ; while the pipe of the shepherd, mingling its sound with that of the bells upon the goats and the sheep, is heard at intervals among the rocks. Dr. Clarke conceived that he could here ascertain the fountains of Aganippe and Helicon, and the Grove of the Muses. Beyond Helicon lie the plain and city of Livadia, the latter of which has...
