1516、我曾与灵人们谈论味觉，他们声称他们没有味觉，但有其它某种东西可以让他们识别味道；他们把这种东西比作气味，只是无法描述它。这让我想起一个事实，即：味觉和嗅觉在第三种感觉中相遇，这从动物也明显看出来，它们循着气味寻找食物，由此知道这食物是否有益健康，是否适合它们。

[NCE]1516. I talked with some spirits about the sense of taste. They said they had no sense of taste but something else that allowed them to recognize flavor, which they compared to smell, although they could not describe it.
This recalled to my mind the fact that taste and smell come together in a third faculty, as can be seen from animals, which find their food by scent. The scent reveals to them whether a thing is their proper food and good for them.

1516. I have spoken with spirits about the sense of taste, which they said that they do not possess, but a something from which they know what taste is, and which they likened to an odor, but which they could not describe. It was brought to my recollection that taste and smell meet in a kind of third sense, as is evident also from animals which examine their food by the smell, from which they know whether it is wholesome and suitable for them.

1516. I have spoken to spirits about the sense of taste, which they said they did not have but instead something by which they nevertheless know what taste is like. They said that it was like an odor, which however they were unable to describe. I then recalled that taste and smell come together in a kind of third sense, as is also clear from animals who examine their food by smelling it and from this they are shown whether it is nourishing and suitable for them.

1516. Locutus cum spiritibus de sensu gustus, quem dixerunt se non habere, sed quoddam ex quo usque cognoscunt qualis gustus est, (x)quem assimilabant odori, quem tamen describere non potuerunt: in recordationem mihi revocatum quod gustus et olfactus in quodam tertio conveniant, ut constat quoque ab animalibus quae olfactu explorant victum, ex quo manifestum iis fit num iis salubris et conveniens.
