Translation: A kind of bird. "And you look like a blackbird, closely shaven with a 'boat'."[1] The "boat" [is] a kind of haircut. [Know] that blackbirds, when they lay eggs, prick the eggs. So bird-catchers stick feathers on them, to blunt their beaks with the softness of the feathers; or so that they do not discharge catarrh; or [know] that after slaughtering them [the hunters] stick feathers [in them], so everyone can see [the blackbirds] hanging from them.[2]
