43. In how farre men are inferiour to many other living creatures, in the faculties of the exteriour senses.
In touching, Spiders are the subtillest:The Bores, in hearing: vulturs, in the smell:
In seeing, Eagles, and the Apes in taste:
Thus beasts in all the senses men excell;
So that, if men were not judicious creatures:
Some brutes would be of more accōplish'd natures.
