This is enough for twenty balls. * These ingre- 

 dients should not be all made up at once, but kept 

 pounded, a little being mixed up fresh with ghoor, 

 when wanted ; then, it will often be eaten, if the gora- 

 walla keeps Ids fingers playing in the angles of the 

 mouth : or, as there is nothing bitter or nauseous in 

 it, a small quantity may be baked up in a large ap. 

 If forced down, the balls must be soft, in the shape 

 of an egg, but not more than two inches in length, 

 nor more than three quarters of an inch in diameter. 

 When a balling-iron is used, it should always be co- 

 vered with leather, and the tongue very gently held. 



* These masallah balls I would never give. If a horse requires any thing 

 of the kind, the cordial ball or cordial drinks at pages 108 and 109 are much 

 better. -ED.
