No.21 婚礼の行列:婚礼の行列は非常に豪華な行事である。一行の資力に応じて、多かれ少なかれ華やかな轎子や豪勢な宴会、音楽隊、新婦の衣装を含む無数の箱がある。一門の銘板(Family tablets)や提灯、官職をあらわす様々な記章(official insignia)、赤い傘などが恭しく運ばれ、新婦は bonne bouche (食事の最後に出されるおいしい料理)のごとく最後に現れる。ある地方では、丸焼きの豚を担いだ男の人が行列を先導する。これは客になる気を起こすかもしれない悪鬼どもの注意をそらすためである。しかしながら、この後者の習俗は普遍的なものではない。No.21 A WEDDING PROCESSION. BRIDAL processions are very gorgeous affairs. There are, according to the means of the parties, more or less showy sedans, a rich feast, a band of music, and countless boxes, containing the bride's wardrobe. The family tablets, lanterns, and various official insignia, with red umbrellas, &c., are carried in state; the bride herself coming as a bonne bouche last of all. In some places the processions is headed by a man carrying a baked hog for the purpose of diverting the attention of any sly demons who might be disposed to become guests. This latter custom, however, is not universal. |
