   In those ancient times, shoes such as ours, were not in use;
   and the foot was protected only with sandals or soles,
   fastened round the foot with straps.  It was, therefore, not

   great refreshment, in so hot a country, to get the feet washed
   at the end of a day's journey; and this is the first thing
   that Abraham proposes.

 * tree.
   Rest in the shade was the second requisite for the refreshment
   of a weary traveller.
