26 Of Quadruped's. Part I. 
of the Bexmas. In ihape almoft like a bended Crofs- 
bow. By the firing, * of a yard long; but by the 
bow , about an Eln. It was formerly tipp'd with 
filver, and kept in a Gentlemans houfe, and fhew'd (to 
fome fpecial Friends ) for the Claw of a Griffin. See the 
figure hereof in Mofcarduss Mufieum. 
The HORNES of a WILD BULL3 called Bu- 
halus five Buffalo. They are broad at the Roots, but 
grow very lharp of a fudden $ and bended inwards about 
the middle 5 fo that the Tips are not above two inches 
diftant. See the Animal defcrib'd in BeUonius, and others. 
He is much bigger than the European Bull. This kind 
breeds moft in Afia. But they are alfo kept in Italy, in 
their Cities. In India they fell the Milk of the Female about 
the ftreets, as they do Cows Milk here. The Leather call'd 
Buff, is made of the Hyde. Thefe Homes were brought 
from Africa. 
The HORN ES of the BUNCH-BAK'D BULL. 
Cornua Bifontis. This pair belongeth to that Species, which 
hath a great Maine. Thefe, contrary to the former, ftand 
wide, and efpecial upwards , their Tips being s an Eln 
diftant. See the Description of the Animal in Aldrovan- 
du6, his Picture in Johnfton. He is fwifter than any other 
Bull, and untameable. He breeds in Lithuania. To the 
homes is joyn d the fore-part of the skull, together with 
the skin, which is very thick and tough. The skin of any 
Bulls Forehead, either for its toughnefs, or other caufe, is 
the only part of the Hyde made ufe of by Homers, 
whereupon they lhave their Homes ( which they take out 
of a Tub of warm water by them ) to fit them for Lamp- 
homs. 
The T A I L of an Indian COW. The Male is call'd 
Bonafus. The hairs hereof are greyifh. Above a yard and 
* long. Yet almoft as foft and fine as a Womans. The 
Cow is faid to be worfliipped by the people that live near 
the River Ganges. 
A little STONE out of an Oxes Liver. Infcribed 
Tetraedrum inventum in Hepate Bovis. But I find it broken 
into feveral pieces. It is juft of a liver-colour. And is 
compos d, as the Bezoar Stone, of feveral crufts or foft fhells
