Since it is impossible to represent an Animal, without giving it Members; and since every Member, to appear such, must have a resemblance with that of some other Animal; it follows, that to design any imaginary Animal, you must give it the Parts, and Members of a real one: For instance, if you wou'd have it appear like a Serpent, let it have the Head of a Mastiff, the Eyes of a Cat, the Ears of a Porcupine, the Snout of a Grey Hound, the Eye-brows of a Lyon, the Temples of a Cock, and the Neck of a Tortoise.
