D. 1500, we read of a Parrot at Rome, supposed to be of this species, for which 100 gold pieces were given rSlTTAt TS KJJYTH. MTS.

...SH-COLOURED Oil GREY PARROT. 127 by a Cardinal. Its merits, however, appear to have been of a kind well calculated at that period to create an unusual degree of astonishment, and a feeling of the marvellous, as it had learned to repeat with clearness, and without hesitation, the whole Oi the Apostles' creed. Willughby, also, in his old and excellent work on Ornithology, mentions the high prices brought by Parrots of various species in Holland, and other parts of the Continent. To enu- merate the various anecdotes related of this bird, would not only occupy more space than the nature of our work will allow, but would, in a great mea- sure, be only repeating what has already so frequent- ly been told in the works and compilations of other writers.
