Zidon — An ancient town and haven of Phoenicia, not far from Tyre. Arvad — Or Aradus, an island belonging to Phoenicia, twenty furlongs from the continent. Mariners — Rowers in thy galleys; the rich Tyrians would not employ their own in such servile works, they hired strangers. Wise men — Thy learned men: for navigation was the great study of the Tyrians.
