O'PAL

Domain	Definition
Literature	O'pal From the Greek ops (the eye). Considered unlucky for the same reason that peacocks' feathers in a house are said to be unlucky. A peacock's feather, being full of eyes, act as spies in a house, prying into one's privacy. Similarly, it is unlucky to introduce the eye-stone or opal into a house, because it will interfere with the sanctity of domestic privacy. (See Ceraunium) . "Not an opal Wrapped in a bay-leaf in my left fist, To charm their eyes with." Ben Jonson: New Inn, i. 6. Source: Brewer's Dictionary.
