Mr. Tozer's remark {Highlands of Turkey, vol. ii., p. 257) that ' of real humour . . . there is hardly any trace in their composition.' This fancied fact Mr. TozER attributes to, or rather deduces from, the ' sad and serious condition of a people conscious of living under oppression.' The Dance of the Maiaens. 185 ' You must sit at home and spin ; Weaving, too, will keep you in.' ' Both we laugh at gaily, pooh !
Loom and twirling spindle too !' ' Your husband you indoors will close, And with hi
...s stick he'll give you blows.' ' The stick should have two ends, he'd see !
And we would have a second key !' THE FEAST.
TO STMITOSION.

{Aravandinos, 411.) DRINK we beakers filled to brim, With us black-eyed maidens trim ; Black eyes with us at our wine ; Black eyes from the windows shine.
If I were a klepht I'd steal them, Or were cunning, I'd beguile them !
To the market they should go, While the crier went to and fro ; I would sell them, I'll be bound, Sell them for five hundred pound !
