See-Einhorn – Sea-Unicorn
We cannot better conclude the Account we had to
give of the Sea-monsters, then with a description of
so remarkable and miraculous a Fish as may justly
deserve a particular Chapter to treat of it. It is the Sea-Uni
corn, which is sometimes seen in those parts. There was cast
ashore in the year 1664 a prodigious one, on the Coast of the
Tortoise-Island, neer Hispaniola: Monfieur du Montel having
been an eye-witness thereof, gives us this curious descripti-
on of it.
