'Nonne vides quaecunque mora, fluidoque calore Corpora tabescunt in parva animalia verti'
As for that part of the law of God which is called jus divinum naturale, it is so called in opposition to jus divinum positivum. Sect. 3. Jus naturale, saith Justinian, est quod naturo omnia animalia docuit.
A careful study of the resemblances and differences presented by animals has, in fact, led naturalists to arrange them into groups, or assemblages, all the members of each group presenting a certain amount of definable resemblance, and the number of points of similarity being smaller as the group is larger and 'vice versa'. Thus, all creatures which agree only in presenting the few distinctive marks of animality form the 'Kingdom' ANIMALIA. The numerous animals which agree only in possessing the special characters of Vertebrates form one 'Sub-Kingdom' of this Kingdom.
" animalia muta Quis generosa putat nisi fortia" while among civilised nations, eccentricity, beauty, cleverness, or love of sport, may establish him a lady's pet or a sportsman's companion.
"Pronaque cum spectent animalia cetera terram," is only applicable in its true physical sense to animals; but in a figurative and spiritual sense, unfortunately, to the great majority of men too.
The opinion entertained generally by the classical writers of Greece and Rome, that Man in the first stage of his existence was but just removed from the brutes, is faithfully expressed by Horace in his celebrated lines, which begin: Quum prorepserunt primis animalia terris. Sat. lib. 1, 3, 99.
You know Harvey's saying, omnia animalia ex ovo, all animals come from an egg. You ought to know it, for the great controversy going on about spontaneous generation has brought it into special prominence lately. Well, then, the ovum, the egg, is, to speak in human phrase, the Creator's more private and sacred studio, for his magnum opus.
"Listen to me for a moment," said the steady voice of Moreau; "and then say what you will." "Well?" said I. He coughed, thought, then shouted: "Latin, Prendick! bad Latin, schoolboy Latin; but try and understand. Hi non sunt homines; sunt animalia qui nos habemus vivisected. A humanising process. I will explain. Come ashore." I laughed. "A pretty story," said I. "They talk, build houses.

Plinius proveth, that animalia insecta do sometimes sleep, because sometimes when light is holden near them, yet they stir not. And may not we conclude that the Bishop was sleeping, when, though both in this and divers other places, such convincing light was holden out before them, yet hath he said nothing, nor stirred himself at all for the matter?
