The hart, and the roebuck, and the fallow deer, and the wild goat, and the pygarg, and the wild ox, and the chamois.
Ver. 5. The hart and the roebuck.] These were dainties fit for a king. 1Ki 4:23 Rice and mutton is the cheer wherewith the great Turk entertaineth foreign ambassadors, and that so plainly and sparingly dressed, as if they would give check to our gormandise and excess.
And the wild ox.] Pliny saith, a that there are wild creatures answerable to all that are tame: like as others say there is no living creature on earth, but there are fishes of the same sort found in the sea, and those all harmless.
a Plin., lib. viii. cap. 53.
