 * a flea.
   {Parosh,} (in Arabic {borghooth,} Syriac, {poorthano,}) the
   well known little contemptible and troublesome insect, the
   flea, seems to be so called from its agility in leaping and
   skipping, from {para,} "free," and {raash,} "to leap, bound."
   David, by comparing himself to this insect, seems to import,
   that while it would cost Saul much pains to catch him, he
   would obtain but very little advantage from it.
 
 * a partridge.
   {Korai} certainly denotes the partridge, which is called in
   Arabic, {kir(8461).}  It seems to be so called from the cry or
   {cur} which it utters when calling its young.
