Note mmm — BOOK IV.

The Mole, as its Habitation is different from that of other Animals, so hath its Organs in every respect curiously adapted to that way of Life; particularly its Nose made sharp, and slender, but withal tendinous and strong, &c. But what is very remarkable, it hath such Nerves reaching to the end of its Nose and Lips, as Ducks, &c. have, mentioned above in Note (kkk). Which Pair of Nerves I observed to be much larger in this Animal than any other Nerves proceeding out of its Brain.
