This is a very solemn service and is sung with great ceremo- ny and with row upon row of white veilednuns, whose narrow belts of blue, orange or red show their peculiar ur- der, kneeling in the transom.

There wore but few vow-tables to m‘t'ompnuy the various dishes of meat and fowl. After the solid food was disposed of, wine and ale were drank in profuse quantities.
