  CRAYFISH, n.  A small crustacean very much resembling the lobster, but
  less indigestible.
  
          In this small fish I take it that human wisdom is admirably
      figured and symbolized; for whereas the crayfish doth move only
      backward, and can have only retrospection, seeing naught but the
      perils already passed, so the wisdom of man doth not enable him to
      avoid the follies that beset his course, but only to apprehend
      their nature afterward.
                                                      Sir James Merivale
