DescriptionMonsters & Prodigies 58.jpg	English: Jerom Cardane in his books De fubilitate, write's, that in the Ilands of the Molucca's you may fomtimes finde lying upon the ground, or take up in the waters, a dead bird called a Manucodiata, that is in Hebrew, the bird of God, it is never feen alive. It live's aloft in the air, it is like a Swallow in bodie and beak, yet diftinguifhed with divers colored feathers: for thofe on the top of the head are of a golden color, thofe of the neck to a Mallard, but the tail and wings like Peacocks; it want's feet: Wherefore if it becom wearie with flying, or defire fleep, it hang's up the bodie by twineing the feathers about fom bough of a tree. ... I faw one at Paris which was prefented to King Charls the ninth.
