			that bathe in dust; a dusty colour, as of their 
			feathers.

kukumakranka		an amaryllidaceous bulb, /Gethyllis/ ssp., 
			which bears white flowers in the summer, and in the
			winter pushes up through the earth an oblong fruit
			used medicinally in cordial, and to give a house its
			penetrating scent, likened to strawberry and to
			custard-apple.  [prob. < Khoi.]

clyssus			(Parascelsian chem.) used in senses whose connections
			are obscure: the return of vital principles to
			their source; the union of principles through long
			digestion, especially those principles distilled

Tell me of this(these) codware(s).

[eub.livejournal.com]

codware¹: a pillowcase; from cod¹ a pillow, probably related to cod².
codware²: a pod-vegetable; from cod² a bag, a husk, as in peascod, codpiece.

(And a pilliver is a codware¹.)

There's a word for you: pulveratrix.
