Note 341 — Chapter V
Reading edition
When I asked the meaning of it, all they could say, was, that it meant “salt.” Mr. A. Dumas, who has given, if not an accurate description of the dance, at least a vivid delineation of his own sensations, has, from thinking salero to be nonsense, written salado, and makes the performers be gratified by being called “très salées.” He is the only writer who has published this mystery.
