Character sketches of romance, fiction, and the drama.

AA’RON, a Moor, beloved by Tam’ora, queen of the Goths, in the tragedy of Titus Andron’icus, published among the plays of Shakespeare (1593).

(The classic name is Andronicus, but the character of this play is purely fictitious.)

Aaron (St.), a British martyr of the City of Legions (Newport, in South Wales).  He was torn limb from limb by order of Maximian’us Hercu’lius, general in Britain, of the army of Diocle’tian.  Two churches were founded in the City of Legions, one in honor of St. Aaron and one in honor of his fellow-martyr, St. Julius.  Newport was called Caerleon by the British.

  ... two others ... sealed their doctrine with
  their blood;
  St. Julius, and with him St. Aaron, have their
  room
  At Carleon, suffering death by Diocletian’s doom. 
Drayton, Polyolbion, xxiv, (1622).

AAZ’IZ (3 syl.), so the queen of Sheba or Saba is sometimes called; but in the Koran she is called Balkis (ch. xxvii.).

ABAD’DON, an angel of the bottomless pit (Rev. ix. 11).  The word is derived from the Hebrew, abad, “lost,” and means the lost one.  There are two other angels introduced by Klopstock in The Messiah with similar names, but must not be confounded with the angel referred to in Rev.; one is Obaddon, the angel of death, and the other Abbad’ona, the repentant devil.
