about Six in the Morning
The pulling off my Cloaths he did not wonder at , for the Rich and Great among 'em wear Mantles , and cover their Legs with fine Cloath . I slept very heartily , and very much at my Ease . My Master , who was a rich Farmer , went the next Day to _ Ludbitallya _ , the Metropolis of the Kingdom , about Forty Miles from his Home , to acquaint his Landlord who was a Minister of State , what a Rarity he had in Possession . He set out about Six in the Morning , and returned at Noon ; for the _ Cacklogallinians _ will fly at the Rate of Twenty Miles an Hour . His Landlord came in less than that Space after in great State . He was preceded by Half a Dozen Servants , who carried large Battens in their right Feet , and made no Ceremony of knocking any on the Head who came in their Way . He was in a sort of Palanquin , covered with fine Cloth , and powdered with silver Stars in Circles , supported by four _ Cacklogallinians _ adorn 'd with silver Chains .
