Seite 231 - The Osprey oft here seen, though seldom here it breeds, Which over them the fish no sooner do espy, But (betwixt him and them, by an antipathy) Turning their bellies up, as though their death they saw, They at his pleasure lie, to stuff his glutt'nous maw.
Seite 231 - To find the floating fry, with their sharp-piercing sight, \Vhich suddenly they take, by stooping from their height. The Cormorant then comes, (by his devouring kind) Which flying o'er the fen, immediately doth find The fleet best stor'd of fish, when from his wings at full, As though he shot himself into the thick'ned skull, He under water goes, and so the shoal pursues...
Seite 89 - ... to a people possessing no quadruped, and but very scantily supplied with both animal and vegetable food, the chase and capture of such a creature would not only be a grand achievement, but one also, from its importance, not likely ever to be forgotten ; seeing, too, that many things of comparatively minor importance are by them handed down from father to son in continued succession from the very night of history.

Seite 457 - By H. Warburton, Esq., MP, FRS, Pres. GS The bed described does not form a continuous stratum, but occurs with interruptions and intervals in the condition of Septaria, which contain remains of shells of the genera Paludina and Unto.
Seite 85 - ... apparently of one species only, must have been brought to Mr. Williams. From the great difference in the sizes of some of them when compared with each other, Mr. Williams came to the conclusion that the animal to which they once belonged must have been very long-lived. Whilst, however, I do not perceive how far this inference is to be correctly deduced from the mere difference in the size of the bones, we know that longevity is common to very many of the feathered race, particularly to those...
Seite 472 - ... group by those naturalists whose authority upon the subject is the highest; and as the majority of them are distinct in organization from any animals not parasitic ; and as we are as yet far from having arrived at a natural arrangement of invertebral animals, (there being some groups which though not parasitic, require to be associated with the Entozoa, and others which are parasitic, and which many have arranged with these animals, but of which the true situation is extremely doubtful) : —...

Seite 476 - ... spiral, and is surrounded by the convoluted ovaries. All the specimens which I have appear to be females. This species has not, I believe, hitherto been described, although it is very common, and I have frequently met with it. It occurs in the urinary bladder, both of the male and female rat, and is quite distinct from the species which inhabits the small intestine of the same animal. From the thickness of the posterior part of the body compared with other species of Trichosoma, I would venture...
Seite 229 - That have so goodly fowls the wandring eye to please ? Here in my vaster pools, as white as snow or milk (In water black as Styx) swims the wild Swan, the...
