To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:

He describes the character of the cuttle-bone in Sepia, and of the horny pen which takes its place in the various Calamaries, and notes the lack of any similar structure in Octopus. He dissects in both sexes the reproductive organs, noting without exception all their essential and complicated parts ; and he had figured these in his lost • volume of anatomical diagrams. He describes the various kinds of eggs, and, with still more surprising knowledge, shows us the little embryo cuttle-fish, with... its great ARISTOTLE AS A BIOLOGIST 19 yolk-sac, attached (in apparent contrast to the chick's) to the little creature's developing head.
But there is one other remarkable structure that he knew, centuries before it was rediscovered almost in our.
own time. In certain male cuttle-fishes, in the breeding season, one of the arms develops in a curious fashion T into a long coiled whip-lash, and in the act of breeding may then be transferred to the mantle-cavity of the female.
Cuvier himself knew nothing of the nature or the function of this separated arm, and indeed,, if I am not mistaken, it was he who mistook it for a parasitic worm.
