     * the river that runneth.
       Ahava is supposed to be the river Adiava, which, with the
       Diava, is said by Ammianus to have given name to Adiabene, a
       province of Assyria, through which they flowed into the
       Tigris.  These rivers were also called respectively, Anzabas
       and Zabas, the Caprus and Lycus of Ptolemy; the former of
       which he places, at its source, in long. 79; degrees, lat. 39罔   degrees, and at its junction with the Tigris, in long. 79罔   degrees, lat. 36; degrees 6'; and the latter, at its source, in
       long 78; degrees, lat. 39; degrees; and where it falls into the
       Tigris, in long. 79; degrees, lat. 36芟degrees.  They are now
       called the Great and Little Zab, or the Zabein, i.e., the two
       Zabs, which, says Ibn Haukal, "are considerable streams, each
       about half as large as the Dejleh (or Tigris).  They rise
       among the mountains of Azerbaijan:  of these, the larger is
       that which runs towards Haditheh.  These streams form part of
       the Tigris, and water the district of Semerah."
