After this experiment, I need not say that I wanted no sort of earthenware for my use; but I must needs say as to the shapes of them, they were very indifferent, as any one may suppose, when I had no way of making them but as the children make dirt pies, or as a woman would make pies that never learned to raise paste.
Ik behoef niet te zeggen, dat ik na deze proefneming geen gebrek aan aardewerk meer had, maar ik moet bekennen, dat de vorm er van soms vrij zonderling was, want ik maakte ze gelijk kinderen soms voorwerpen van klei of stopverw maken.
