'* CHAPTER V FAMILY FEASTS Of the feasts which are considered more strictly family affairs, I will speak of two which live in my memory clothed with romantic charms. The one is that which we enjoyed at the "killing of the sheep. " As a rule every Syrian family fattens a sheep during the summer season. The housewife feeds the gentle animal by hand so many times during the day and so many during the night, until he is so fat that he "cannot rise from, the ground. " No person is expected to speak ...of this sheep or touch him without say- ing, "The blessing from God" (be upon the Iamb). Oh, if I could but feel again the thrilling joy which was always mine when, as a small boy, I sat beside my mother and rolled the small "morsels" of mulberry and grape-leaves, dipped them in salted bran water, and handed them to my mother to feed the "blessed sheep"! [ 231 ] BREAD AND SALT Early in the autumn came the time for "kill- ing/' Wherever my father was, he came home, for the father of the household must kill the sheep.
