He gives a cup of wine to the betrothed, who pledge one another. The bride- groom then drains the cup. Dashes it to the ground, and crushes it with his heel, a symbol, it is said, that their happiness cannot be without alloy while Jerusalem is in the hands of the heathen. The marriage contract is next l*ead, and attested by each person present drink- ing of a cup of wine. The friends next walk round the canopy, chanting psalms and showering rice upon the couple. The ceremony is concluded by the... elder invok- ing the seven blessings upon them, drinking the bene- dictory cup, and passing it round to the assembly. After dark, the bridegroom leads the bride homewards, atten- ded by the friends of each, while others join the proces- sion on its way, bearing hymeneal lamps in token of respect. Arrived at the bridegroom's house all are invited to a feast, which by the rich is repeated for seven nights, or even longer;' (c. F. Matt 25. I-13 ) Christ attended the marriage celebration at ■ Cana, simply because it was a marriage between his relatives.
