This byrd dwelleth in the wilder¦nessys by ye Pontike mere or see / and he hath croked clawes for to tere ason¦der all that he fyndeth / and he hathe a face lyke a man / but he is nat of the na¦ture lyke a man / for agaȳst man he is very fell. for yf he fynd man he sleeth hym / and than he gothe to the watere for to drinke and there he seeth that he hath dystroyed his owne similitude / & than he morneth so very sore that oftē tymes he morneth vnto the deth / and wepeth as longe as he lyueth
