Monkies

Tuball. One of them ſhewed me a ring that hee had of your daughter for a Monkey. / Shy[lock]. Out vpon her, thou tortur'ſt me Tuball, it was my Turkies, I had it of Leah when I was a Batchellor: I would not haue giuen it for a wilderneſſe of Monkies.

This Creature never rambles very far: and being taken young, will become as tame as a Dog; and be as roguiſh as a Monkey. The Monkies that are in theſe Parts are the uglieſt I ever ſaw.

[…] every one knows how greatly the monkey exceeds all other brutes in its vindictive malice. There appears, in some measure, an analogy even betwixt the vices (if we may so call them) of the monkies, and the disgusting brutality too often observable in the vicious and degraded part of mankind. The animals of the monkey tribe differ very essentially from each other in their general manners and habits of life. The oran otan is susceptible of more considerable attainments than any of the others. The short muzzled monkies, with long tails, such as the greater part of the guenons, sapajous, and sagoins, are for the most part exceedingly tractable, and receive a certain degree of instruction without much difficulty.
