  The internal parts had fainething re1zmnbliin thot' of all (x, efzcially
in
that which concerns the four Ventciiles alid lwtfe/nes. NevertbtlefS thefe
Parts had this particularthat the firft and greatclt Vntricle was partly
411clo-
fed by a Membrane like a Sack, which having abundance of VOlTs might
pafs for the Epiploon; and that itijtead of the Glands and Fat, which is
lu{ally
in this part, there was only towards the top foine Bladders full of wind
about
the bignefs of a CheJImt. The InteiWes, wwhich were forty eight foot long,
had a Cacurn without an Appendix, which was thirteen inches long, and five
broad. It nearly refimbled the Figure of a Mani's.
  The Liver was finall, not exceeding one foot in length and feven inches
in breadth. It was whole, without Lobes, and even without any appear-
ance of the cleft which is over the Cartilago Xiphoides. It was fb joynmd
to
the Diaphragme, that it was impoffible to feparatc it from its convex part
without cutting it. It had no Gall-Bladder, and it was all over, and even
to
the bottom of its arenchyma, of a gray and livid Colour.
  The Spleen was likewife very fmall, being no more than eight inches long
and fix broad. The Sublrance of there two Vifcera foemed very I-nootli
and Homogeneous: but the Kidveys were in their external Subftance {potted
with two different Colours, which made it to appear rough like Lhzgrin
tho to the touch nothing felt rugged. They were not adherent to the Loyns
by the Duplicature of the Peritoneum, but faftned only by their Veflels.
  The Lungs were divided into feven Lobes, of which there was three on
each fide, and one at the middle in the Cavity of the AMediafjinum. The in-
feriour Lobes were each as big again as the fuperiour.
  The Heart was feven inches long, and five broad. Its Figure was pointed,
and from the bafis to the point there was an Eminence obliquely turned like
a
Screw, which Eminence anfwered to the Separation of the two Ventricles,
11 that it feemed to be a fold of the external part of the right Ventricle
upon
the left. This Eminence, which is ficarcely vifible in the Heart of other
Ani-
mals, was extraordinarily apparent in this. The Septum and rell of the P-
renchyma of the Heart, which environed the left Ventricle, had the thickncf;
of an inch. :Th Rings of the Afpera Arte~ria were imnperfect.
  The Brain, comprehending the CerebellIm, was but four inches in length,
and two and a half in breadth. The fmallnefs of this part compared w ith
the greatnefi of the Glandula Lacr),mali>, (which, as has burn LIid, NN;as
an inch l6ng,)ifemed to us as an Argument capable of confirmingg dile Opinionl
of thofe who bilieve that the greatelt part of the Glands which are about
the
Brain do not receive fromint the Humidities, wherewith they ufually are im-
bued; but that they are brought to them by the Arteries, or by the Ncrv'cs,
from which they do receive the Matter, whereof they do make the L7nypha.
The Curiofity whilc we had of exactly iieking out the Duclus's defigned
to receive and convey thefe Humours, which mufi be very vifible in a part
lo extraordinary large, could not be fatisfied, by reafon of the corruption
of
our Subjeft, which had been kept fo long, that all the Parts began to ditrolve
with Putrifafion.
  The SubJtance of the Brain differed not from that of the Cerebelum, both
being very white, and firm enough, notwithftanding the Corruption, to
make it appear very found in an Animal fo fubjea to fbme Diftempers, whofe
                                                                     feat
