There was a perfeft adhefion of the whok Body of 
the Spleen to iho. Ptriionceum^ though with no great 
dilBcuky to be feparaced from the fame ; for its colour 
and complexion it w^s (uitable to the other Bowels, un- 
lefs fomewhat more livid, as it Naturally (hould be. 
Upon diflediog the Kidneys, with a diligent inqui- 
ficion and infpedion of its parts, we discovered nothing 
( though before-hand Jealous ) either in the Carkncula 
Papillares^ or in the Infundihulum^ that could be any 
ways an impediment or let to the Secretion of the Se^

thofe Parts by a Grids, 
The Fejtca Vrinaria was empty, and to my appre-

glib, its internal part was fomewhat rugous, although 
its Cavity when opened, would fcarceiy, I believe, have 
contained ones little Finger. It is really admirable that 
fo fmall a part as this, fliould fo wonderfully dilate and 
expand its Tunicles, as to afford Reception for a Human 
F(Btu$ ; after whofe Expulfion, it doth as it were by a 
certain innate pro}^nfity, contraft it felf to its Priftine 
Magnitude; I cannot more jStly compare it (as I per- 
ceived it in this Body ) to any thing, than the figure of 
a Pear fom@what deprelL 
The Ventricle had nothing contained in it but Wind , 
with which, like unto a blown Bladder, it would retur#i 
after the lead impreffion. 
We come now unto the Parts contain'd within the 
Thorax^ but before we fpeak of them, I mufl: tell you 
that I took nocice of fomeihing, I account admirable ,
