From the Folio Sheet p.6 continued
formed a kind of thin striated substance of the
crispness of a poor pye-crust, free from greasiness,
and in this last form it suited my palate
best. Bulgarian Pilaw instead of rice4, is made
with wheat, soften'd by boiling, and enriched

these seeming trifles, when you consider
that, in a political view, amongst the most important
of the features by which the condition

it is supplied; and that, from knowing how
