Note 441 — Chapter XXXII · TRAINING THE PASSAGE SAKER TO GAZELLE[426]

D. C. (Douglas Craven) Phillott translation

The ordinary word for a “train” (bird or beast) for a greyhound or falcon is bavlī or bāvlī, in India bā,ūlī. The present author also uses dast-par for a bird; and for a gazelle given as a “train” maraj and dakl: the last two words are probably Arab terms; I am, however, unable to trace them.
