A descriptive piece catalogs sharks from dogfish to white sharks with notes on teeth, skin, habitat, and behavior. It mentions the hammer head and tiger sharks, and records uses of shark products in Ceylon including liver oil, fins for soup and gelatin, and skin for carpentry and tools. The piece closes by comparing the crocodile to a giant lizard and hints at continued discussion.
