'' Not fo mufcular as the greater Venter, but thin and 
membranous. The inward lurface alfo plain or with- 
out folds. This laft delcribed, as it may anfwer to the 
fecond Ventricle in our Tajacu : fo his venter magnus, or 
•^firft, may be diftinguifhed into two ; it having about the: 
rightendor half of the belly j feveral/>Wj" ashe obferv- 
ed, which anfwers to our third Stomack, the other end 
being plain, as was our firft. 
But what he takes notice of, that in the common Hog 
againft the Py^r^^j- ftands a round Caruncle, as big as a 
fmall filberd kerneh- like a flople to thePy/orwj- • a part 
bethinks peculiar to this Animal. This in our Mexico 
Hog I did not obferve. His conjedure of the ufe of it, 
is likely enough ; it being fo t/^^r^r^o/^j- an Animal ; for 
the preventing a too fudden, and copious irruption of 
the Aliment, which is fufHciently provided for in our fub-

the great afcent it muft make, before it can go out 
which may be the reafon too, of natures making thefe le 
veral Cells, or partitions 5 for the better digeftion and 
maceration of the food, for it h^Wi^frugiv or ous, gramini- 
vorous, and Carnivorous too ; the ftomacks are fo contriv- 
ed, as that the firft here,by its inward pellicle fomewhat re- 
fembles that oi Birds, that are Carpophagous io the others, 
thokoi ^adrupeds. - 
Why a of any Animal, fhould be (aid themoftto 
refemble Man in all its inward parts, without a Meta- 
phor, I cannot underftand. It may be a pafTage in that 
book, afcribed to Gallen de Anatome parva may give' 
fome occafion to this vulgar Err our None whoftiall 
compare them together ; but will obferve, infeveral, if 
not mo^ parts, a vaft difference; as appears in what we 
have difcourfed of allready, the tS^o^Wi^r/^.
