and motion of the Hand: thofe of the lower fide of e- 
very Triangle^ to the bending in or clutching of the 
Fingers 5 and thofe of the other two fides, and of the 
Elltpticks, to the preffure of the Hand or Fingers ends a- 
gainft any body, requiring them to yield to the ri^ht and 
left. Upon thefe ^dges^ the Pores are very providently 
placed, 2ind not m t\\^Ftir rows which lie between them ; 
that fo their ftrudnre might be the more fturdy, and lefs 
liable to be depraved by compreffion whereby only the 
Furrows are dilated or contraded, the l{idges conftantiy 
maintaining themfelves,and fo the Pores unalter d. And 
for the lame reafon, the Pores are alfo very large^ that 
they may ftill be the better preferved, tho the skrn be 
never fo much comprefTed and condens'djby the conftant 
ufe and labour of the Fland. i\nd fo thole of th^Feet, 
iiotwithftanding the conlpreilion of the skia by the 
weight of the whole Body. 
Th^iQ Pores being thus made and fecur'd, are a very 
convenient and open paffage for the difcharge of the 
more nox.ous and perfpirable parts of the Blood, Which 
by the continual ule of the Hands and Feet, are plenti- 
fully brought into them. Whence it is, that th^fweat 
of ih^Feet, in many people, is much more off'enfive than 
that of any other part oiih^Body. Apd that many Hypo- 
chondriacal Men, and Hyjierical Women, have almofta 
continual burning in the foles of their Feet , and the 
palms of their Hands. Yet not on the top of their Feet 
or back of their Hands j which being not fo much chafed 
nor kept fo warm, are the lefs difpofed to receive the faid 
noxious parts; and are therefore unfurniflied wi^h this 
kind of Pores.
