The bamboo furnishes the bed for sleeping, and the couch for reclining ; the chopsticks for eating, the pipe for smoking, and the flute for entertaining ; a curtain to hang before the door, and a broom to sweep around it ; wether with screens, stools, stands, and sofas for various uses of convenience and luxury in the house.
