Literature | Christian Traditions connected with natural objects. 1. Birds, Beasts, and Fishes. The Ass: Cross on the back. (See Ass.) Bunting. (See Yellowhammer.) The Crossbill has nothing to do with the Christian cross; the bird is so called, because its mandibles cross each other. Haddock: The finger-marks on the Haddock and John Dory. (See Haddock, etc.) Ichthus, a fish. (See Ichthus.) Pike's Head (q.v.). Pigeons or Doves: The Russians are averse to pigeons as a food, because the Holy Ghost assumed the form of a dove at the baptism of Jesus. (Sporting Magazine, January, 1825, p. 307.)
