"Boria the best of its kind;
"Boria everywhere in the world;
"Boria the beautiful (was) seen;
"Sacred and pure Boria.
"In the countries of Madras
"The Boria is made of grass;
"Fences are made with bamboo ;
"Boria is green in colour. etc., etc."But in Penang the name of Boria is from the 21st Regiment, and has become celebrated. Now-a-days the Malays have given their own different names to it, but they call all of them Boria for the purpose of asking charity for them. In Madras wherever the Regiment is the Boria play is performed."
H. T. Haughton.
