The head of a bird resembling a turkey is attached to one side, with the bill turned inward. On the opposite side there is a small handle-like projection that represents the bird's tail. The bowl is smaller and deeper than the last, and serves as the body of a bird, the head and tail of which are of unusual proportions.
There are still several interesting relics; among others, two instruments, doubtless Indian-made, used during the Easter services. One is a board studded with handle-like irons, which, when moved rapidly from side to side, makes a hideous noise.
Now she is upright, shapeless in the shadow, but from time to time I see her remarkable leanness outlined. She slips on a camisole and a jacket, a spectral vision of garments which unfold themselves about her handle-like arms, and above the hollow framework of her shoulders.
A number of vases, modeled after the human head, are, by their general outline, properly included. ORNAMENTATION. The rims, bodies, and bases are embellished much after the fashion of the vessels already described, with the exception that handles or handle-like appendages or ornaments seldom appear.
