March 2, 1834.
I went this morning to visit the Archbishop ; whom
I found surrounded by several episcopal dignitaries,
and a few other persons. The conclave rose as I en-
tered, and I had a seat assigned me on the divan, to
the right of the Metropolitan. The usual cup of coffee,
and a modest pipe, unadorned of course by any such
precious stones as are usually seen on that of a Turk
visit to the archbishop.
