[Footnote 88: This sketch of the Turkish education and
discipline is chiefly borrowed from Ricaut's State of the
Ottoman Empire, the Stato Militaire del' Imperio Ottomano of
Count Marsigli, (in Hava, 1732, in folio,) and a description
of the Seraglio, approved by Mr. Greaves himself, a curious
traveller, and inserted in the second volume of his works.]
