Σελίδα 225 - On each couch there were commonly three. They lay with the upper part of the body reclined on the left arm, the head a little raised, the back supported by cushions, and the limbs stretched out at full length, or a little bent...
Σελίδα 103 - Among the ancients, a launch was ever an occasion of great festivity. The mariners were crowned with wreaths, and the ship bedecked with streamers and garlands. Safely afloat, she was purified with a lighted torch, an egg, and brimstone, and solemnly consecrated to the god whose image she bore.

This is performed in various ways ; but in one of the most common methods, a large spiral blade revolves, rapidly, in contact with another blade, while the cloth is stretched over a bed, or support, just near enough for the projecting filaments to be cut off, at a uniform length, while the main texture remains...
