Mr. W A F E R\> Voyages ^ See. ityfp 



worthy of Note, is a fort of Sheep they have, ItsShee F* 

 which the Inhabitants call Corner a de Ter~ 

 ra. This Creature is about four Foot and 

 an half high at the Back, and a very ftate- 

 ly Beaft. Thefe Sheep are fo Tame, that 

 we frequently ufed to Bridle one of them, 

 upon whofe Back two of the luftieft Men 

 would ride at once round the Ifland, to 

 drive the reft to the Fold. His ordinary 

 Pace is either an Amble or a good Hand- 

 gallop 5 nor does he care for going any 

 other Pace, during the time his Rider is 

 upon his Back. His Mouth is like that of a 

 Hare c and the Hair-lip above opens as 

 well as the Main-lips, when he bites the 

 Grafs, which he does very near. His Head 

 is much like an Antelope^ but they had no 

 Horns when we were there $ yet we found 

 very large Horns, much twifted, in the 

 form of a Snail-fhell, which we fuppos'd 

 they had ihed : They lay many of them 

 fcattering upon the Sandy Bays. His Ears 

 refemble thofe of an Afs, his Neck final I, 

 and refembling a Cammels. He carries his 

 Head bending, and very (lately, like a 

 Swan 5 is full-chefted like a Horfe, and 

 has his Loyns much like a well-fhap'd 

 Grey-hound. His Buttocks refemble thoie 

 of a full-grown Deer, and he has milch 

 fuch a Tail. He is Cloven-footed like a 

 Sheep, but on the infide of each Foot h?s 

 a large Claw, bigger than ones Finger, but
