8o Some Inquiries and Remarks 



acquainted with one Species only of the Vultiir, that is found 

 in thefe Countries, it is improperly faid to be after his Kind. 

 Haddayoh therefore muft be the Name of fome other Bird, of 

 a more extenfive Family. In like manner, if (nsit*) Anophoh 

 is rightly tranflated the Heron ^ (v. i8. ) which hkewife was 

 after his Kind\ then the Storlz, from the near Affinity to it, 

 would not have been diftin6lly given , but included in that 

 Tribe : fo that one or other of the original Names muft be- 

 long to fome other Bird, not here fpecified. The Kite or Glede 

 alfo, fliould not have been particularly mentioned, provided 

 {V^!^J Haneitz is the Hawk\ becaufe as This was after his Kind, 

 {Lei). II. 1 6.) the Kite or Glede would be confidered only as a 

 Species. And it may be further obferved, particularly with 

 Regard to our own Tranflation, that the OJJifrage and the 

 Ofpra/ \ {Veut. 14. 11.) the Kite like wife and the Glede (v.i ^. ) 

 are generally taken for fynonymous Terms; and confequently 

 our Englifh Catalogue will fall Ihort, by two at leaft, of the 

 Number, that is given us in the Original. 

 Ss'^'xhtiT ^^ ^^ P^^^ ^^ ^^°"^ ^^^ Birds, to the Fowls that creep, going 

 "Di^^^^n^- upon all four, (Lev. 11. lo&c.) the Scripture Defcription of 

 gard to ^^f^Jnfe&s\ we Ihall find this Clafs of Animals to be attended 

 with no lefs Difficulties than the former. For if the Beetle, 

 as we render ('^Jin) Hargol (v. xi.) was to be eaten after his 

 Kind, then, among others, the Scarahcem Stercorarius, the 

 filthieft of Animals, muft have been allowed for Food. The 

 Locuft too, as it was to be eaten after his Kind, would, pro- 

 perly, have included the Bald Locuft, (perhaps xht Mantis) 

 and the Grafshopper. The Bald Locuft and Grafshopper there- 

 fore, inftead of being laid down yevi>Jj, as Kinds, ftiould have 

 rather been confidered, tl^y^i, as Species only of the LocuU- 

 Kind, and omitted upon that Account. And indeed, the Cha- 

 rafterifticks of this Family, as they are given us in all Tranfla- 

 tions, feem to belaid down with very little Propriety. 

 i. With Re- For, in the firft Place, (fjivn via') Shairetz Ho-oph, which 

 fhLaeri- " we render Fowls that creep, may be more properly tranflated, 

 ^"'"' the breeding Fowls, ot Fowls that multiply ; from the infinitely- 

 greater Number of Eggs, that are produced by InfeCls, than 

 by Volatiles of any other Kind. It may be obferved again, 

 that Infefts do not properly walk upon four, but fix Feet.
