Description

n 4 CURIOUS CREATURES.
" It is well enough known that Bears, Dolphins, Stags,
Sheep, Calves and Lambs, are much delighted with
Musick : and, again, they are to be driven from their
Heards by some harsh sounding Pipes, or Horns, that
when they hear the sound they will be gone into the
Woods, a great way off. Now the Shepheards of the
Cattel know this well enough : they will play upon their
two horned Pipes continually, which sometimes are taken
away by Bears, until such time as the Bear is forced by
Hunger to go away to get his food. Wherefore they
take a Goat's Horn, and sometimes a Cow's Horn, and
make such a horrid noise, that they scare the wild beasts,
and so return safe to their dispersed flocks. This two
horned Pipe, which in their tongue they call Seec-Pipe,
they carry to the fields with them, for they have learned
by use, that their Flocks and Heards will feed the better
and closer together.
" The Russians and Lithuanians are more near to the
Swedes and Goths on the Eastern parts : and these hold

it a singular delight, to have always the most cruel

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.

This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.

Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
