_Fiz-gigs_.--In those excellent poems, Sandys's _Paraphrases on Job and
other Books of the Bible_, there is a word of a most destructive
character to the effect. Speaking of leviathan, he asks,
"Canst thou with _fiz-gigs_ pierce him to the quick?"
It may be an ignorant question, but I do not know what fiz-gigs are.
