     * 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.
