The sole of the foot.
1612. Ainsworth, Annot. Ps. lxxxix. 52. The oracle, Gen. 3. 15. that the Serpent should bruise the foot-sole of the womans seed.
1630. J. Taylor (Water P.), Taylors Goose, Wks. 105/2.
Or else the name of them [Soleand Geese] may well proceede | |
From the Dams foot-sole, whence they all do breede. |

A pain that shall not be washed out by tears; | |
A dreary road the weary foot-sole wears. |
