called deprimens (the depreffer) and wmujftulus bumilis; it is placed oppofite to the 
other, and draws the eyes downwards towards the cheeks. The third is called-ad 
ducens, the drawer to ; alfo /eforius, the reading mufcle, becaufe it moves the'eyelin- 
wards towards the nofe. The fourth is called abducens, the drawer from, becau eit” 
draws the eye to the outward corner; it is alfo termed the indignatorius, as being the — 
mufcle of indignation. Al) thefe four mufcles have the fame original, progrels, and 
end; the beginning of them all is acute, near the hole where the optic nerve « neers 
into the focket of the eye, from the membrane whereof they arife, their bellyis fefhy 
and round, and their end a very imall tendon: by-all thefe four acting together, the 
eye is kept from ftirring. The fifth moufcle, called obliguus major, or fuperior 
arifes from a common beginning with the firft four, is carried right out to the inner 
- corner of the eye, where it pafles out and afcends in’a right angle to the upper fide 
of the cornea: this mufcle is the {malleft ofall, and has the longeft. tendon, -by \ 
which it wheels the eye about unto the inner corner... The fixth motcle, called abli. 
quus internus minor and inferior, is a fhort, lean, round, and oblique, mufcle,) ne 
between the eyes and tendons of the fecond and third mufcle; it fprings ft 
lower and almoft outward part of the orbit of the eye, and, afcending by the out 
ward corner to the upper part of the eye, is inferted into the cor#ea by the region of 
the iris. It whirls about the eye obliquely downwards to. its external or eat 
corner. ay kien) 
~ The mufcles of the external part of the ear are fin pair; of cae nobis 
two pair; but in moft people the ears are immoveable, becaufe of the {mallnefs of 
the mutcles and little need of their motion. Of the four firft mufcles, three are 
common with other parts; the fourth is proper to itfelf. “The firft mufcle-is called 
deprimens, common to the ear and each lip, and is a part of the firft’ nvfele-which 
Toves the cheeks and fkin of the face, and is called: guadratus, the fquare: 
“very thin and broad, and is implantéd into the root of the-ear, and pulls it down. 
‘fecond is called antrorfum ducens, or the drawer forwards; it isa part of the — 
«frontal mufcle, which is carried above the temporal mufcle, and is inferted into the 
upper part of the ear. The third mutcle is called retrorfium ducens, OF abducens aa 
- pofteri ora, the drawer back, and arifes from a part of the occipital mmufele, above she | 
+ procefits mammillaris, with a narrow beginning, from whence, growing, broader, it! 
‘carried downwards tranfverfely, and inferted into the hinder part of the ¢at te 
fourth mufcleis-called ¢riparitus, or attolens, the lifter ups it arifes from the pr: ce 
- mammillaris, and being, broad it grows narrow by little and little, till at laft it € 
in a tendon, and is inferted into the root of the ear. This is the only props mul : 
-to ae ear, and is rather three-fold; becaufe it has three infertions, though al are
