Excerpt from A History of the Earth and Animated Nature, Vol. 2 All birds are covered with feathers, and they are the only animals which, properly speaking, are so. These feathers are of two sorts - feathers for clothing, to protect the animal from the vicissitudes of the weather, and feathers for ight. Both of these are beautifully modified, so as to suit the different habits of the several species, and adapt them to the climates and the ele ments in which they find their food.

Excerpt from A History of the Earth and Animated Nature, Vol. 4 of 6 These names do not make two distinct kinds, but are only given to l variety of the same animal, which has, however, subsisted time imme morial. The principal, and perhaps the only sensible difference, by which those two races are distinguished, consists in this, that the camel has two bunches upon his back, whereas the dromedary has but one; the latter, also, is neither so large, nor so strong, as the camel. These two races, however, produce with each other, and the mixed breed formed between them is considered the best, the most patient, and the most indefatigable of all the kind. Of the two varieties, the dromedary is by far the most numerous, the camel being scarcely ever found, except in Turkey, and the countries of the Levant; while the other is found spread over all the deserts of Arabia, the southern parts of Africa, Persia, Tartary, and a great part of the eastern Indies. Thus the one inhabits an immense tract of country, the other, in comparison, is confined to a province; the one inhabits the sultry countries of the Torrid Zone, the other delights in a warm, but not a burning climate; neither, however, can subsist or propagate in the variable climates towards the north; they seem formed for those countries where shrubs are plenty, and water scarce where they can travel along the sandy desert without being impeded by rivers, and find food at expected distances; such a country is Ara bia, and this, of all others, seems the most adapted to the support and production of this animal.

Excerpt from A History of the Earth, and Animated Nature, Vol. 2 of 6 As man, in all the privileges he enjoys, and the powers he is invested with, has a superiority over all other animals, so in his necessities he seems inferior to the meanest of them all. Nature has brought him into life with a greater variety of wants and infirmities than the rest of her creatures, unarmed in the midst of enemies. The lion has natural arms, the bear natural clothing; but man is destitute of all such advantages, and, from the superiority of his mind alone, he is to supply the deficiency. The number of his wants, however, were merely given in order to multiply the number of his enjoyments; since the possibility of being deprived of any good, teaches him the value of its possession.

Excerpt from An History of the Earth, Vol. 2 of 4: And Animated Nature Of infects, the ruminating tribe is still larger; the mole, the cricket, the wasp, the drone, the bee, the grashopper, and the beetle. All these animals either actually chew the cud, or seem at least to ruminate. They have the stomach composed of muscular fibres, by means whereof the food is ground up and down, in the fame manner as in those which are particularly distinguished by the appellation of ruminants. But not these alone; men themselves have been often known to ruminate, and some even with pleasure. The accounts of these calamities, for such I must consider them, incident to our fellow-creatures, are not very pleasant to read; yet I must transcribe a short one, as given us by flare, in the philosophical transactions, as it may, in some measure, show the satisfaction which the lower tribes of animals enjoy, while they ruminate. The man in question was a citizen of Bristol, of about twenty years of age, and, what seemed more extraordinary dill, of a ruminating family, for his father was frequently subject to the fame infirmity, or amusement, as he himself perhaps would call it. This young man usually began to chew his meat over again within about a quarter of an hour after eating. His ruminating after a full meal, generally laded about an hour and a half; nor could he sleep until this task was performed. The victuals, upon the return, tasted even more pleasantly than at first; and returned as if they had been beaten up in a mortar. If he ate a variety of things, that which he ate first came up again first; and if this return was interrupted for any time, it produced sickness and disorder, and he was never well till it returned. Instances of this kind, however, are rare and accidental; and it is happy for mankind they arc so. Of all other animals, we spend the lead time in eating: this is one of the great distinctions between us and the brute creation; and eating is a pleasure of so low a kind, that none but such as are nearly allied to the quadruped, desire its prolongation.
