thigh-bone, around it the flesh or muscle, and around 

 this again the skin. Similar cuts through various parts 

 of both fore- and hind-limbs show that these appendages 

 of the body are solid, containing no cavities, except the 

 sub-cutaneous lymph-sinuses previously observed.

 and liver are displaced downwards, and the mouth, pharynx, and cloaca laid

Summary. We thus get a notion of the general plan of 

 construction of a frog as follows. It consists of a central 

 or axial portion, the head and trunk, and of two pairs of 

 lateral offshoots or appendages, the fore- and hind-limbs.
