(*A Rabbit. 
HTHe Gulet of a RABBIT is inferted into the middle of 
the Stomach, as in a Rat. 
The Stomach fliaped almoft like a Dogs, but bigger, with 
refpect to the Animal. Its inner Membrane is gather d up 
intofeveral little Plates, like thofe in a Man. At the End 
next the Pylorus, much thicker, and more Glandulous, Ner- 
vous, and Mufcular than in any other part. 
The Guts, without the Cacum, are four yards long. In 
number, five. The Firft, or Jejunum, about four feet long, 
and i an inch over. 
The Second, or Ileum, as long 5 and above i an inch over. 
Whereas in fome, as the Polecat, Dog, Vrchan, the Second 
Gut is fmaller than the Firft. 
The Jejunum is befprinkled with a great number of very 
fmall Glands •* which when the Guts are blown up and dry, 
look like a multitude of little Specks. » Whence the Gut is 
more opacous than the Ileum.
