meum transfcrre non dubitavi. 
“ Animalculum, vel congeries animalculorum 
mirabilis. Pluries in guttulis aquas marinas vidi 
corpufcula linearia flavefcentia (folitaria paleas, in 
quadrangula difpofita fcobes referebant) granulaque 
feminalia qualifcunque vegetabilis diu credidi; de- 
mum node inter 6 & 7 Odobrem 1781 afpedu fili 
flavefcentis, fefe in longum producentis et in breve 
contrahentis, ac ex his pax i 11 is compofiti, obftupe- 
fadus, novoque phoenomeno gavifus, ejufdem va- 
riis evolutionibus incubui.”
