THE RITUAL, OE GREETING 



"No matter the state of one's birth, or power, or dignity, he that is on horseback should 

 greet the man on foot. ... A man on horseback should speak first to the man he meets 

 riding a mule. A man on a mule should greet first a poor man riding a donkey. . . . 

 These rules of etiquette are most scrupulously kept" (see text, page 103).
