 * furniture.
   The word, {car,} rendered "furniture," properly denotes "a
   large round pannier," placed one on each side of a camel, for
   a person, especially women, to ride in.  It is a hamper, like
   a cradle, having a back, head, and sides, like a great chair.
   Moryson describes them as "two long chairs like cradles,
   covered with red cloth, to hang on the two sides of the
   camel."  Hanway calls them {kedgavays,} which "are a kind of
   covered chairs, which the Persians hang over their camels in
   the manner of {panniers,} and are big enough for one person to
   sit in."  Thevenot, who calls then {counes,} says that they
   lay over them a cover, which keeps then both from the rain and
   sun; and Maillet describes them as covered cages, hanging on
   each side of a camel.  The late Editor of Calmet has furnished
   a correct delineation of these cars, as seen on one side of a
   camel, copied from Dalton's Prints of Egyptian Figures.

 * searched.  Heb. felt.
