appear white, but not tranfparent. To pleafe lotnc cu- 
rious f^erlons, and to reprefent this Criftallin body, yet 
plainer to their fight, I have taken a Cm^ll Tennis Ball , 
and wound the fame about, with a very fine Cord, having 
before ilufk in many fmall pins, in the places where it 
W^s td be kept from flipping ; then 1 fmder'd th^Ball

But, for that I alwayes difc^rn it not, I conceived, that 
as the ^Zt^^j- (as here before is faid) are very fraall, and 
clotted one to the other, that fo in the feparating of 
them,fome parts of one thred remain faftned to the os-

ed it might better agree with x}Vi^vcFabric\, to fuppofe 
that each thred, was again compofed of many other 
fmaller /^/;r(?<^j* joyned together, as I have heretofore laid, 
that the Flejh threds although 9. times thinner then a hair 
of our head, are again conftituted of other threds,

Cats, the Crijiallin bodies, and ordered them, as I had 
done thofe of an <?:3tr ; but have found not the leaft vari-
