* sending portions.
The eastern princes and people not only invite their friends
to feasts, but it is their custom to send a portion of the
banquet to those that cannot well attend, especially their
relations, and those in a state of mourning. Thus, when the
Grand Emir found that it incommoded M. D'Arvieux to eat with
him, he desired him to take his own time for eating, and sent
him from his kitchen what he liked best.
