Iii. 14, I am extremely dubious about its meaning, but am rather inclined to think it does not signify any particular colour, but means flowery, or something of that kind. " Obs. V. 4. P. 338. A. Clarke's edition. cue ture name, it is the saf-saf, a bird which he thus describes. " The rhaad, or saf-saf \ is a granivorous and gregarious bird, which wanteth the hinder toe. There are two spe- cies of it ; the smaller whereof is of the size of an ordinary pullet, but the latter as big as a capon, d...ifferent also from the lesser in having a black head, with a tuft of dark blue feathers immediately below it. The belly of them both is white, the back and wings of a buff colour, spotted with brown, whilst the tail is lighter, marked all along with black transverse streaks. The beak and legs are stronger than birds of the partridge kind. Rhaad, which denoteth thunder, in the language of this country, is supposed to be a name that hath been given to this bird from the noise it maketh in springing from the ground ; as saf- saf, the other name, very naturally expresseth the beating of the air when on the wing/' The principal objection to adopt- ing this bird is, that the SACAPH was prohibited as unclean, and it cannot be supposed that the saf-saf, a gra- nivorous bird, should be so consider- ed ; besides, the SACAPH is placed in the text among birds of prey.
