Bayle
in his learned
Dissertation on the Souls of Brutes
, delivers the same Opinion, tho' in a bolder Form of Words, where he says,
Deus est Anima Brutorum
, God himself is the Soul of Brutes. Who can tell what to call that seeming Sagacity in Animals, which directs them to such Food as is proper for them, and makes them naturally avoid whatever is noxious or unwholesome?
Tully
has observed that a Lamb no sooner falls from its Mother, but immediately and of his own accord applies itself to the Teat.
