Visit to Iceland

CHAPTER III
4/51

The rooms of the poorer class have neither wooden walls nor floors, and are just large enough to admit of the inhabitants sleeping, and perhaps turning round in them.

The whole interior accommodation is comprised in bedsteads with very little covering, a small table, and a few drawers.

Beds and chests of drawers answer the purpose of benches and chairs.

Above the beds are fixed rods, from which depend clothes, shoes, stockings, &c.

A small board, on which are arranged a few books, is generally to be observed.
