* castles.
   The word {tiroth,} rendered "castles," is supposed by some to
   denote here "towers," fortified rocks, or mountain-tops, and
   fastnesses of various kinds in woods and hilly countries; but
   it rather means, "shepherds' cots," surrounded by sufficient
   enclosures to prevent the cattle from straying, as the cognate
   Syriac word {teyaro,} and Arabic {tawar,} signify "a
   sheep-fold."

 * twelve.
