Apocrypha · Chapter 12 of 68
Slavonic
And I looked and saw other flying elements of the sun, whose names are Phoenix and Chalkydri, wonderful and magnificent.
2With feet and tails in the form of a lion, heads of a crocodile, and their appearance scarlet like the rainbow.
3Their size is nine hundred measures, their wings are like those of angels, each with twelve.
4And they attend and accompany the sun giving heat and dew as commanded by God.
