Their great business was 'o enjoy life. Rabelais indulges his spirit of eensanlity in wine, in dried neat's tongues, in Bologna sausages, in Botargos. John BuDn cle shows the Kame symptoms ot inordinate satisfeectiot in ten ant bread and butter.

The title of one of Rabelais' chapters, and the contents an- swer to the title, is, " How they chirped over theircup."
