Body, by the Brain and Nerves, yet we may difcover 
the Engines it makes ufe of to perform its Operati- 
ons, whence the Phyfician may come to the Knowledge 
of rectifying the Engine, and fitting it for the Souls 
ufe. In the next place he (hews the weaknefs of the 
Empirick ; and that even by the Conceflions of his 
Opponent , it is fain to be beholden to the former 
for what it has of folid, for cafual and fortuitous Re- 
medies ought to be Examined by reafon as well as Expe- 
rience. Coming clofer to the Argument he proves, 
that the more Curious fabtile Anatomy is net ufe- 
Jefs to the Cure of Difeafes, anfwering his Citations 
from the Authority of Galen^ who was himfelf as Cu- 
rious as he could, not being furniih'd with Microfcopes 
and other helps of later Invention : As to the necef- 
fity of the more curious Anatomy, he inftances in the 
Difcoveries that have been thereby made in the ufe of 
the Parts and their Difeafes, viz. of the Spleen, Lungs, 
and Glands, under the Tongue, Pilate and Trachea^ 
Glandulouis Strudlure of the Pleura^ and Peritoneum. 
Proceeding farther he Ihe ws, that neither the Metho- 
dtfts not Chimijls ever defpifed Anatomy ; and then 
lets down the different ufes afcribed by the Ancients and 
Moderns to fever al parts of the Body, viz. the Kid- 
neys, Liver and Gall ; and thence fliews, contrary to 
the Oppofers Aflertion, how they differ, and affirms, 
that the Moderns have in many things reformed the 
ancient Pradife, inftancing in lome Difcafes of the Kid- 
nies, ^c. After this he ihews, from the Authors of 
the BihliotL Anat. fome new Difcoveries that have 
been made, as the Strufture and ufe of the Heart, 
with the Circulation of the Blood, Motion of the Ar- 
teries^, ufe of the Veins^ the Lymphaticks, the La(9-e- 
al Veins, Structure of the Liver, and Motion of the 
©all, Strudture and ufe of xh&Bancreas^ of the Spleen, 
of.
