342 THE POLITICAL CONSTITUTION OF EGYPT. as his attention is relaxed, the work slackens, quarrels arise, and the spiritof idleness and theft gains the ascendency. Two men have unharnessedtheir team. One of them quickly milks one of the cows, the other holds theanimal and impatiently awaits his turn: Be quick, while the farmer is notthere. They run the risk of a beating for a potful of milk.1 The weeks pass,the corn has ripened, the harvest begins. The fellahîn, armed with a shortsickle, cut or rather saw the stalks, a handful at a time. As they advance inline, a flute-player plays them captivating tunes, a man joins in with his voicemarking the rhythm by clapping his hands, the foreman throwing in now andthen a few words of exhortation : What lad among you, when the seasonis over, can say : 4 It is I who say it, to thee and to my comrades, you are allof you but idlers ! —Who among you cau say : An active lad for the job amI ! 2 A servant moves among the gang with a tall jar of beer
