A
SURVEY
Of the Particular
Tribes of ANIMALS.
In the foregoing Book, having taken a View of the Things in common to Animals, my Business in the next, will be to inspect the particular Tribes, in order to give further Manifestations of the Infinite Creator’s Wisdom, Power and Goodness towards the Animal World.
BOOK V.
A SURVEY of Man.
The first Genus of Animals that I shall take Notice of, shall be Man, who may justly claim the Precedence in our Discourse, inasmuch as God hath given him the Superiority in the Animal World; Gen. i. 26. And God said, Let us make Man in our Image, after our Likeness; and let them have Dominion over the Fish of the Sea, and over the Fowl of the Air, and over the Cattle, and over all the Earth, and over every creeping Thing that creepeth upon the Earth.
