Note 3 — PART. II. (continued 2)
Nicolaus Staphorst translation
Too soon, for that there are no such creatures in the world as either Unicorn or Griffin, I am as sure as I can be of a Negative. Nay, Dr. Brown hath well demonstrated, that there cannot be such a creature as the common pictures of him represent the Unicorn. I cannot again but wonder at the credulity of so curious and inquisitive a man as Rauwolff, in believing the idle stories of such a vain and lying fellow.
