of a small spaniell; which when evening comes hunts for his prey, and

lion as chiefe hunt, gives diligent eare, following for his advantage. 
If the jackall set up his chase before the lion comes in, he howles out 
maynly, and then the lion seiseth on it, making a grumbling noyse,

countrey people, but might heare our selves riding at anchor by night 
in our passing up the river). When the lion hath done, this attendant 
feeds on the relikes.”
