To hunt by the track.

To draw along the ground. Trail your pikes. And hung his head, and trail’d his legs along. They shall not trail me through the streets . Like a wild beast. That long behind he trails his pompous robe.

To lower; as, to trail arms.

To be drawn out in length. When his brother saw the red blood trail.

Track followed by the hunter; scent left on the ground by the animal pursued. How cheerfully on the false trail they cry.

Any thing drawn to length; as the trail of a meteor; a trail of smoke. When lightning shoots in glitt’ring trails along.

Any thing drawn behind in long undulations; a train. And drew behind a radiant trail of hair.

The entrails of a fowl; applied sometimes to those of sheep. Trail boards, in ship-building, a term for the craved work between the cheeks of the head, at the heel of the figure.
