Isaiah13:21
21 But wild beasts of the desert shall lie there , and their houses shall be full of doleful creatures, and owls shall dwell there, and satyrs shall dance there .
The Land being forsaken by Men, shall be possessed by Wild Beasts, which love solitary places.
What the Hebrew Words used here, and in the next Verse, signifie, the Learned may see in my Latin Synopsis; and for others, it may suffice to know that in which all the Learned agree, that these are frightful and solitary Creatures: Of which if I should particularly discourse, I should rather perplex than edifie the Vulgar Reader.
Marginal references: Heb. Ziim.; Heb. O[illegible: 1+ letters]him.; Or ostriches.; Heb. daughters of the owl.
