A Voyage to Abyssinia
Jeronimo Lobo
The vigour with which he held by his purpose of endeavouring in every possible way to bring the Christianity of Abyssinia within the pale of the Catholic Church is in accordance with the character that makes the centre of the story of this book. Whimsical touches arise out of this strength of character and readiness of resource, as when he tells of the taste of the Abyssinians for raw cow?s flesh, with a sauce high in royal Abyssinian favour, made of the cow?s gall and contents of its entrails, of which, when he was pressed to partake, he could only excuse himself and his brethren by suggesting that it was too good for such humble missionaries.- Statement by Henry Morley in the preface to the 1887 edition.
