 * 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.
