other by a ftrong dulky line on each fide, and on each 

 knee there is a tuft of hair. 



The KEVEL 



is a native of Senegal ; and, in colour and marks, very 

 much refembles the preceding animal. It is about the 

 fize of a fmall Roe-buck ; and its horns, inftead of being 

 round, are flatted on their fides, and the rings are more 

 numerous. It lives in great flocks, may be eafily tamed, 

 and is excellent meat. 



The C O R I N 



is ftill lefs than the two former animals : Its horns are 

 very flender, only fix inches long, and almoft fmooth, 

 the annular prominences being fcarcely difcernible; each 

 fide of its face is marked with a white line, and beneath 

 that a black one ; the upper part of the body is tawny ; 

 the belly and infide of the thighs, white ; a dark line on 

 each fide forms a feparation between the two colours 

 on the back and belly ; on each knee is a tuft of hair. 

 Some of thefe animals are irregularly fpotted with white. 



The K O B A 



is remarkable for the form of its horns, which are almoft 

 clofe at the bafe, bending out towards the middle, where 

 they form a curve inwards, and again fly off at the 

 points, which bend backward; they are feventeen inches 

 long, furrounded with fifteen rings; the ends are fmooth 

 and {harp.
