Creatures 3 but he is able to move one upward or back - 
ward, and the other downward or forward, or any other 
way, at the fame time. No lefs the fabrick of his Tongue 5 
which being hollow from end to end, with a firing run- 
ning through the hollow, fallen d behind to the Os hyoides, 
before to its extremity, it darts out and contracts it felf in 
an inllant : and with a Vifcous fubflance at the end, catches 
the Prey, which are Flys and other Infects, as we ufe to do 
Birds with Limetwigs. Thus far Panarolus. 
In the High-hoe , and other Birds of this kind, there is a 
peculiar Cyftis, wherein a Vifcous matter, like that above 
mention'd, is flored, and a Pipe deriving it thence into the 
Mouth 3 the Defcription whereof I may hereafter publifh. 
I fuppofe therefore, that upon further examination,the like 
Contrivance will be found in a Chamkleon. 
It may be noted, That Vanarolm, about the beginning 
of his Defcription, calls the Chameleon a How Creature : 
Yet faith afterwards, ( towards the end ) that he climbs 
Trees fo wonderfully fwift, as if he flew. He is not there- 
fore fo properly flow, as perhaps fullen and humerous. 
Barthoiine {a) hath alfo the Anatomy of this Animal, but (<*) Hift. 
tranfcribes it all out of Panarolus. In one particular much Cent " 2 * 
forgets himfelf,faying about the beginning of his Difcourfe, 
that the Chameleon hath very great Lungs 3 and in the end, 
that they are but little. 
A young brown CHAMELEON.

A CROCODILE, about two yards and i long. 
He differs not much from a Lizard 3 chiefly in his Bulk, 
and the hardnefs of his Skin, which on his Back hath Scales 
proportionably hard and thick. In Faname there are fome 
an hundred feet long 3 as is affirmed both by J oh. de Lopez, 
(b) and Job. d.e Leri. (4) In the Mafaum Romanum, there f*j Hifl j Ind - 
is a Tragical Relation of a very great one that devoured a (c/cap'io, 
Virgin, Cap. 6. The fame Animal which in the Book of 
Job is called the Leviathan, and hath been commonly taken 
to be the Whale 3 but fallly,as Bochart hath demonflrated. He 
is tolerably well defcribed by moll 3 and curioufly figured 
by Bejler. He breeds in divers places in both the Indies, as 
well as in Egypt.
