reckoned as an appendix of the Colon. In a Hog, Dr. Grew 
makes feven Intejfines. The fame differences^ it may be, 
I might have met with here y but I was prevented by the 
little leaiure 1 had of being fo nice in this, as forae other 
parts ; and it being kept fo long before I had it for dif- 
led:ion ; it was rendred lefs fit for fuch enquiries. FaU 
cohurgius faith the length of all the guts were 34 geome- 
trical feet, ours meafured more. The Strudure of the 
Colon here, I look on as extraordinary. Some fuch gtit 
I find in a Goat^ making feveral Jpiral windmgs in the 
middle of the Mefentery; but then taking a compais 
round, near the verge, to which are fattened the lefTer 
inteilineS:? atlaft paffes into'^the So in ^.Vyood- 
Cock^, there is fuch a Spiral Gut. But in our Tajacu not 
only theStomack, Gut, and Meflentery were extraor- 
dinary i but the Mefaraicl^^ veflels too. For in men, 
and Dogs, ^c, making the fegment of a Circle near 
the middle, they then fend out feveral large branches to- 
wards the Inteftines; which as they approach them, by 
their mutual inofculation^ for in feveral fmall birches 
from whence iffue numerous lefTer branches to the Guts 
themfelves. But here in our Hog, we obferved a large 
Vein, and Artery, running a fmall and equal diftance 
from the Inteftines 5 and from them, arifing an infinite 
number of lefier, but ftraight vefTels ; which going to 
the Guts fo regularly, and in fo great numbers, afford- 
ed a very plefant fight. 
The Spleen^ was about 10 Inches longj almoft of the 
fame breadth throughout; and in the middle, was one' 
Inch, and half broad, it was of a lead colour, a little 
fpeckled, or marbled. Lien palmas duas <equat tranf-

The Liver confifted of four large lokes and was of a 
dark red colour. It appeared plainly glandulous and 
had no Vejica fellea , which is the more remarkable- 
fince our common Swine have a large Cyftis fellea. But it 
had aDu^us bilarius^ which went from the Liver to the
