…I was ill at ease, and moved my legs forward very slowly. But what then was the corporeal substance towards which I was advancing? I knew that the genus pelicaninae includes four distinct species: the booby, the pelican, the cormorant, the frigate-bird. The greyish form that appeared before me was not a booby. The sculptured block I set eyes on was not a frigate-bird. The frosted flesh I observed was not a cormorant. Now I could see him, the man with encephalon bereft of annular protuberance! I delved dimly amid my memory’s meanderings: in what torrid or icy region had I already observed that very long, broad, convex, vaulted beak with pronounced, unguiculate, inflated bridge hooked at its tip; those toothed, straight edges; the branches of that lower mandible separate almost to the end of the gap filled with a membraneous skin; that wide pouch, yellow and sacciform, occupying that whole throat and capable of distending itself considerably; and those very narrow nostrils, longitudinal, almost imperceptible, hollowed into a basal groove!Had this living being, its respiration pulmonary and simple, its body decked with hair, been bird complete, down to the soles of its feet, and not merely to its shoulders, it would not then have been so hard for me to recognise it: a very easy thing to do, as you are about to see for yourselves.
But this time, I excuse myself; for my demonstration to be lucid I would require one such bird to be placed on my work table, even if only a stuffed one. Besides, I am not rich enough to procure one. Following step by step a previous hypothesis, I would immediately have determined its true nature and found a place in the outline of natural history for him in whose sickly posture I admired such nobility. With what satisfaction at not being entirely ignorant of the secrets of his dual organism, and with what eagerness to know still more, did I behold him in his abiding metamorphosis! Although he did not have a human face, he seemed to me as fine as the two long tentaculiform filaments of an insect; or rather, as a hasty burial; or again, as the law of reconstitution of mutilated limbs; and above all, as an eminently putrescible liquid! But paying no heed whatever to what was happening in the vicinity, the pelican-headed stranger kept staring straight ahead…
