There is an ox of the shape of a stag, between whose ears a horn rises from the
middle of the forehead, higher and straighter than those horns which are known
to us. From the top of this, branches, like palms, stretch out a considerable
distance. The shape of the female and of the male is the, same; the appearance
and the size of the horns is the same.
