Summary

Description
English: This following monfter is fo ftrange that it will fcarce bee believed, but by thofe that have feen it: it is bred in America, and by the Salvages called Haiit, of the bignefs of a Monkie, with a great bellie, almoft touching the ground, and the head and face of a childe: beeing taken, it mourn's and figh's like to a man that is troubled and perplext; it is of an afh-color, hath the feet divided into three claws, four fingers long, and fharper than thofe of a Lion: it climbe's trees, and live's there more frequently then upon the ground, the tail is no longer then the bredth of three fingers. It is ftrange and almoft monftrous that thefe kinde of creatures have never been feen to feed upon, or eat anie thing: for the Salvages have kept them long in their houfes to make trial thereof, wherefore they think them to live by the air.
