Apollonius Humeric Lexicon: Some writers give the name
of beast to lions, leopards, wolves. and all similar animals,
that of creeping-thing generically to the various kinds of
snakes, that of monster to cetaceans such as whales: which
is the dint neki made by Aleman in the lines :

Asleep lie mountain-top and mountain-gully,
shoulder also and ravine: the creeping- things that
come from the dark earth, the beasts whose lying
is upon the hillside, the generation of the bees, the
monsters in the depths of the purple brine, all lie
asleep, and with them the tribes of the winging birds.
