Hieroglyphics of Horapollo, tr. Alexander Turner Cory, [1840], at sacred-texts.com
When they would symbolise a king who keeps himself apart, 2 and shews no mercy to delinquencies, 3 they depict an EAGLE; for he builds his nest in desert places, and flies higher than all birds.
120:2 ἰδιάζω, "to live apart," also "to revenge oneself."
120:3 πταῖσμα, "a calamity in war," also "a fault."
