2s8 M E U O 1 R S of the 
FoliaceHy and from thence a pafTage into the T'uba Falloplafm , 
the 'Tubce Fallopiauee were two fine (lender canals or dufts, 
llipportcd by the Ald^ Uteriy and running waving, and leading 
into the extremities of the Cortma Uteri -^ the Carrnm Uteri 
being inflated, were about the bignefs of a goole-quill, near 
an inch and a half long, and were faftened to the !Alce Uteris 
towards both ends a little bent ^ but where they pafled into the 
Uteris they were reflefted inwards, and at the other extremity 
refleflcd outwards- their fubftance fecnied rather thicker than 
the Uteri themfelves, and not fo tranfparent, by reafon of the 
numerous blood-veffels, which irrigated them almoft all over 5 
for on the infide, both above and under, there ran the whole 
length of the Cornuti, large trunks of blood-vefiels, fending 
from the fides all along numerous branches 5 which is very 
requifite in animals ;hat are mulriparous, as in our fubjedt, 
having five or fix young at a time, which lie and arc formed 
in the Cornua Uteri j and here Dr. Tyfon obferved feme linall 
eminences on the internal membrane of the Cornua^ whereby 
they were fomewhat divided into cells, but very imperfeftly, 
the two Cornua empty themfelves into the two Uteri, juft in 
the middle, where they are conjoined together, and lb out- 
wardly feem to form, as it were, one continued body : In 
the females of lobfters and crabs there are two Uteri, as there 
are two 'Fe^cs in the male; fo there are two Fenes, and each 
of them forked, in the rattle-fnake 3 but this feem s to be the 
only inflance of a Lind quadruped, that hath two Uteri -^ and 
each of them double by the reflexion they make, and by an 
imperfefl jDitiphragm, which divides the cavity of each Uterus 
a confiderable way : Thefe Uteri are not faftened to the ^Icfy 
as the Ovaria, ^uhce, and Cornua are- but where they are 
conjoined, near the infertion of the Cornua, they adhere very 
firmly to the neck of the bladder, and hardly feparable there- 
from 5 and by a membrane, to the ReEitm, where they are 
more eafily leparablc 3 fo that the neck of the bladder lies 
over the iDiafhragrn, or membrane, which divides them, as 
was faid, into two diftinft Uteri 5 here the body of the Uteri, 
inflated, mcafured in compafs, about an inch and three quar- 
ters 5 from hence they v.-ere proje6fen towards each flde, and 
not according to the lenc^th of the fpinc, gradually enlarging 
the internal cavity, ius it is extended 3 for here, about the 
angle of rcflev^ion, it mcafured in compafs, two inches and a 
half^ the C/rcr/, being thus extended towards each fide, about 
the fpaceof an inch and three quarters, arc then refled:ed back 
again
