 " This wall is visited by all our brothers on every feast and festival ; and the large space at its foot is often so densely filled up , that all cannot perform their devotions here at the same time . It is also visited , though by less numbers , on every Friday afternoon , and by some nearly every day . No one is molested in these visits by the <unk> , as we have a very old firman from the Sultan of Constantinople that the approach shall not be denied to us , though the Porte obtains for this privilege a special tax , which is , however , quite insignificant .
