60 SKETCH OF SUDHA AND THE AKROTERI. [CHAP.
Rhodius67; and that island is likewise described, by
other authors68, as the place where Uranos suffered the
indignity alluded to.
While I was busied in examining some of the exist-
ing remains of Aptera, my companion made a sketch,
seen at the head of the last chapter, of the bay and islet
of Sudha, taking it from the walls of the ancient city.
On returning to the metdhki the old priest gave us for
breakfast some meat fried in oil, and served up swim-
ming in that favourite condiment of almost every Cretan
dish. I made him a suitable recompense for the hospi-
tality he had shewn us, preventing any difficulties, which
might have arisen in the way of his receiving it, by
suggesting, that the trifle which I gave was " for the
Church."
