Having lawfully slain them, and applied salt from the salt-cellar, and
having struck
fire with steel [188] (from a flint), we used to broil and
eat them. The horses we let loose [to graze], and they generally found
sufficient to satisfy their hunger
from the grass and leaves. One day we reached a large even plain, where
there was no trace of any habitation, and where no human face could be
