This is a very beautiful and expressive figure. The dew in
Palestine, and other warm climates, falls fast, sudden, and
heavy; and it falls upon every spot of earth, so that not a
blade of grass escapes it. It is therefore no inapt emblem of
a numerous and active army; and it was, perhaps, for this
reason that the Romans called their light armed forces
{rorarii.}

{Sappoth,} probably wooden bowls, such as the Arabs still eat

- earthen vessels.
{Keley yotzair}, literally, "vessels of the potter." So when
Dr. Perry visited the temple of Luxor in Egypt, he says, "We
were entertained by the Caliph here with great civility and
favor; he sent us, in return of our presents, several sheep,
a good quantity of eggs, {bardacks,}" etc. The {bardacks,} he
informs us, were earthen vessels, used "to cool and refresh
their water in, by means of which it drinks very cool and
pleasant in the hottest seasons of the year." See Harmer, ch.
vi.
* Ob 1:3
- wheat.
Mr. Jones says, "Travellers use {zumeet, tumeet,} and
{limereece.} {Zumeet} is flour mixed with honey, butter, and
spice; {tumeet} is flour done up with organ oil: and
{limereece} is flour mixed with water, for drink. This
quenches thirst much better than water alone, satisfies a
hungry appetite; cools and refreshes tired and weary spirits,"
