Strana 289 - Outang is an aniiml of the human form, inside as well as outside: that he has the human intelligence, as much as can be expected in an animal living without civility or arts: that he has a disposition of mind, mild, docile, and humane: that he has the sentiments and affections peculiar to our species, such as the sense of modesty, of honor...
Strana 271 - Monboddo says, that as to his body, he [the orang-outang] is altogether man, both outside and inside, excepting some small variations, such as cannot make a specific difference between the two animals, and I am persuaded are less considerable than are to be found betwixt individuals that are undoubtedly of the human species.

Strana 468 - ... painting, or delineating any object by drawing the figure of it, it may have been ufed before the invention of language; but it could go no farther than to communicate the notion of vifible objects; and, befides, it is of flow and difficult practice, and not at all of fo ready ufe as language.
