The IForm of the 144#^ Table, is inofl: worthy of 
admiration 5 which I took the Third Day of JpriU 
i 6 $ 8 . I never cou’d obferve ^ though I was very 
diligent ) whether it eat or drunk j neither cou’d I* 
animadvert whether or noe it had any Eyes, or any a- 
perture in its body ; by which it might either receive 
nutriment, or eject excrement : it wants Feet , it always 
refts, immoveable, and rather rejoices in cold then heat , 
for 1 placed it in the Sun beams, and preftntly it (ought 
for a (kadow and (helter , and afterwards moved 
not. 
fometimes it turned its body, (b that it lay on its 
back , but prcfently contradting its body into a round, 
it kept its former habit, as is in this 
I had this Worme alive with me at home, from the 
third of Aprill 1658, to the of Augufi 1659, 
without any food, and on that Day it dyed, afterwards 
( whichis worthy to be obferyed, J there lived always 
near this Worm three White Animalls , lefle then com- 
mon which always (luck on the belly , or back 
of the Worm , and after this manner they lived Nine 
Months without any food that I obierved, at length, two 
of thefe Animalls on the Head , and the third on the 
Back of the Worm , dyed.
