dar.ee upon the earth, but also up
on the rope* The manner of tta*
ch ins: them to dance is thus s
They bring some young eleph
ant upon a floor of earth that has
been heated underneath, and they
play upon a cittern or tabor* while
the poor bead lifts up his Ramps
very often from the hot floor more
by reason of the heat than any de
sire to dsnee—and Ahjs they prac
ing. 13ut Bitsbequius saw a danc

the iume elephant playing at ball,
tolling it to a man with his trunk
and receiving it back again.

The elephant is a cieature of a
tice so olteti until the bead has
got a habit of it, that when he
hears any n nfic he falls a danc
very docile and capable nature to
ltarn a 1 moil any thing ; they have
been taught by their keeper 4 to
adote the king**'says Aiiftotle, to
dance, to thiow Acmes at a in;ik ;
to rail t p aims in the air, and
catch then tgain n their fall ; to
walk upon ropes, which Calba was
the full that exhibited at Rome,
tays su6l.nius. these things
they learn with that care th at they
have often been found pr; cltfirg
in the night what had been taught
in the day* ‘They write, too, says
Pliny, speaking of one who wrote
in tlit Greek tongue —lp si ego h*c

myself saw, Jiiian* one ol them
writing Rnmat) Ictteis upon a ta
blet w ith his trunk, and the letters
he made were not lagged, but
draft and ever. ; and his eyes were
fixed upon the tablet as one that
was serious and intent upon his
woik. In the ylays that German
icus Cjeaar'fhowed at Rome in the
reign of Tiberius, there were
twelve elephaats, iix males and fix
females; these were clothed us
m enaud women. At the com
mand of their keeper they danced
and performed all the geflures of
a mimc. At last they were bro’t
where they were to feaft—a table
was covered with all kinds of
dainties, and goblets of gold, with
other little cups of wine placed, Sc
beds covered with purple cat pets,
after the manner of the Roman
eating, for them to lie upon. Up
on these they laid down, and at
the signal given they reached out
their trunks to the table and with
great rm defty fell to eating, and
cat ard drank as a sort of civil
ruen would do.
