leaft it fpoils all the other flelli, Jo, Faber labours much to 
give an account, how this horrid fcetor fliould happen. 
And having fallen into one errour, in fuppofing it aiV^- 
vel \ that leads, and precipitates him into others. And 
makes him fancy fometimes it may be from theX)m^^ ; 
whofe Virulent Steams may come here, by the Vrachus. 
Other times he knows not, but that an Intejiine likewife 
may be fattened there: but is moft of all inclinable to 
think, 'tis from the Vrinaculum as he calls it. Thus he 
obferves what an horrid Stin^thc Vrine of Cats will make, 
where it lights. But here I mufk remark that in rendring 
their Vrine, at the fame time, they may empty their 
hags feated at the ^eUum, which mixing with it, in a 
great meafure, may give it it's ftrong ffetor. So the fame 
of l{ats, and Mice, of a Fox when hunted, 6cc. And I 
amapt to think 'twas by removing thefe Scent-bags ra- 
ther, then taking out tht Kidneys that they made the 
Sarigoy ^A\h\Q:, which otherwife ftank fo much, that the 
Barbarous Natives refuled them, as out of Lerius, Jo, Fa- 
ber takes notice. This Stink therefore or Smell in onvTa" 
jacu, come not from any other parts ; but is naturally le- 
parated here. As is the Mus\, the Civet, the Cajior, the 
imell of a Fox, of the Vole-Cat, &c. intheir proper 
Glands, and Scent-bags. Nor am I any thing concerned, 
that others fay it Stinks , when I would make it a ^^r/^^/Wi 
Or dol, queftion, but that their Seftfe, and Nofes were 
as good as mine : Since I know, thatthebeft perfumes 
iometimesmake the greateft Stinks, Civet, nay Mtisk^ it 
felf when frefh, and green, and in large quantities, are no 
ways agreeable, but very offenfi veto the fm ell; *<is many
