Over
his
head
was
carried
one
of
those
old
patched
umbrellas
,
which
seemed
to
have
been
cut
out
of
a
harlequin
's
dress
.
On
the
monarch
's
neck
and
on
his
nose
were
the
magnifying
glass
and
the
spectacles
which
had
caused
Cousin
Benedict
so
much
trouble
.
They
had
been
hidden
in
Bat
's
pocket
.
Such
is
the
portrait
of
his
negro
majesty
,
who
made
the
country
tremble
in
a
circumference
of
a
hundred
miles
.
Moini
Loungga
,
from
the
fact
of
occupying
a
throne
,
pretended
to
be
of
celestial
origin
,
and
had
any
of
his
subjects
doubted
the
fact
,
he
would
have
sent
them
into
another
world
to
discover
it
.
He
said
that
,
being
of
a
divine
essence
,
he
was
not
subject
to
terrestrial
laws
.
If
he
ate
,
it
was
because
he
wished
to
do
so
;
if
he
drank
,
it
was
because
it
gave
him
pleasure
.
It
was
impossible
for
him
to
drink
any
more
.
His
ministers
and
his
officers
,
all
incurable
drunkards
,
would
have
passed
before
him
for
sober
men
.
The
court
was
alcoholized
to
the
last
chief
,
and
incessantly
imbibed
strong
beer
,
cider
,
and
,
above
all
,
a
certain
drink
which
Alvez
furnished
in
profusion
.
Moini
Loungga
counted
in
his
harem
wives
of
all
ages
and
of
all
kinds
.
The
larger
part
of
them
accompanied
him
in
this
visit
to
the
"
lakoni
.
"
Moini
,
the
first
,
according
to
date
,
was
a
vixen
of
forty
years
,
of
royal
blood
,
like
her
colleagues
.
She
wore
a
bright
tartan
,
a
straw
petticoat
embroidered
with
pearls
,
and
necklaces
wherever
she
could
put
them
.
Her
hair
was
dressed
so
as
to
make
an
enormous
framework
on
her
little
head
.
She
was
,
in
fact
,
a
monster
.
The
other
wives
,
who
were
either
the
cousins
or
the
sisters
of
the
king
,
were
less
richly
dressed
,
but
much
younger
.
They
walked
behind
her
,
ready
to
fulfil
,
at
a
sign
from
their
master
,
their
duties
as
human
furniture
.
These
unfortunate
beings
were
really
nothing
else
.
If
the
king
wished
to
sit
down
,
two
of
these
women
bent
toward
the
earth
and
served
him
for
a
chair
,
while
his
feet
rested
on
the
bodies
of
some
others
,
as
if
on
an
ebony
carpet
.
In
Moini
Loungga
's
suite
came
his
officers
,
his
captains
,
and
his
magicians
.
