by me for thefe Forty Years almoft, of an Extrtirdi- 
naryfmalnefs, yet they have been but little ufed by me ; 
for according to my judgmeiA, they are not fit to make 
the firft Difcoveries, ior thefe that are ground of a 
bigger Diameter, are more fit for that. 
I have difcovered the Saline parts, and the fhape of 
the Anintalcula in the Mafculine Seed , and fenc the 
fame to you in t'^e Year, i6yj. Which ahb are 
come out in Print in your Philofophical Tranfailionsy 
Numb. 141. fol. 1042. But that one Ihould find fuch 
a perfed Human fliape, as I havefent herewith, which

more times as big as it came out of the Egg, then the 
Legs begin firft to Ihew themfclves. 
Now is it certain, that although w^e can not difcover 
the Shape of a Frog, in an Animal that is come from 
the Egg of a Frog, when we Anatomife it,that yet not- 
withftanding the Frog is Lcck*d up in it. 
Now if an Animal, in the Malculine Seed of a Beaft 
or Fowl, was provided psrfedly with allic's Members, 
fo that by the heip of a Ivlagnifying-glafs they might 
be difcovered, they endeavour to make us believe eire^ 
then thefe Animals muft from time to time, as they
