gave notice of the five little Inftruments which are on 
the head of the before , four whereof are two pairs, 
the one being calTd by him fcrapers, the other Arms, the 
fifth he calls the Wiper, fuppoling that by it they wipe off 
the honie from the flowers. This laft is truly the Sucker 
or Probofcis hQing hollow and made up all of Circular 
Fibres, wherewith the Bee lucks the Honey from the 
flowers. 
The G/oWi?^j* which break forth from the Attire of 
flowers, defcrib'd by Dr. Greiv and Malpighius, which 
are all for the moil part of an oval figure and of diffe- 
rent colours, fome white, fome yellow, fome red, 
feem to be bags of Liquors and ^re the materials 
which the Bees carry in for their wax, as is evident not 
only from the different colours of the wax upon their 
legs according to the different colours of the Globulets 
of the refpe£tive flowers we fee them light upon, but 
for that alio if you take them gathering wax from any 
particular flower, and view a final parcel of that wax 
with a Microfcope you will find it to confift of ihtQlobulets 
of the lame flower, tho' it is not not fo eafie to difcover 
what Liquor they n^^ke ufe of to caufe them to ftick 
together. 
On the inner fide of the hinderXegs of 5^^J-onthe 
joynt towards the toe,next to that on which they carry the 
wax, there are a great many rows of yellow (harp point- 
ed ftiff briftles, let all in order like the teeth of Combs 
for hnt, which I look upon as the Inftruments where- 
with they break thefe Globulets and prepare their wax.
