ABSTRACT

To the east and on the northern side of the street is the wine shop of Pan Tower, and below it a market gathers every day from the fifth watch (3-5 a.m.), where they buy and sell clothes, calligraphy and paintings, precious baubles, rhinoceros horn and jade. When it comes level light of dawn, then such items as sheep’s head, tripe and lung, red and white kidneys, udders, tripe, quails, rabbits, doves, wild game, crabs and clams have disappeared. Then the various handy men come to market to buy and sell miscellaneous small items that are used in provisions.1
