Publisher's Synopsis
Excerpt from Selections From M. Pauw: With Additions
The furprife of the Spaniards increafed, when, penetrating farther into this new world, they found that the men had no beards, their bodies hairlefs, like thofe of eunuque's; that they were almofi infenfible to the pailion of love; had milk, or a kind of milky liquid, in their breafts; that they could not, or would not carry weights; and that the men and women were univer fally tainted with the venereal difeafe: futh throughout the lazinefs of the men, and their hatred of labour, that extreme want, to which they were often fubjeet, had never induced them to cultivate the earth.
