animals

Wednesday, December 13, 2006

Of animals furnished with nails-and, by the way, all animals
have nails that have toes, and toes that have feet, except the
elephant; and the elephant has toes undivided and slightly
articulated, but has no nails whatsoever--of animals furnished with
nails, some are straight-nailed, like man; others are crooked
nailed, as the lion among animals that walk, and the eagle among
animals that fly.
