Of all the Quadrupeds I have open d ? peculiar to this 
Animal, a Horfe, and a ( perhaps alfo an Afs and a 
//^re) to have a true Co/o« : if that of a Man be the ftand- 
ard for the Definition of it. 
The Laft, or S tenor aceum, is alfo * of a yard long. Scarce 
any where more than i an inch over j and towards the 
Anw, not fo much. Whereas in moil Quadrupeds, lis there 
wideft. 
Here are no Bags, as above defcribed in the Carnivo- 
rous Animals.

Sheep and a Calf 
<&A Sheep. 
THeGfl/etfofa SHEEP (three years old, and weighing 
120 pounds Haverdupoife) about an inch and * over : 
which with refpect to the Pane h is but fmall. Compofed 
of feveral Organical Parts : which becaufe they are here, a$ 
well as in fome other larger Animals, more confpicuous, I 
fhall fomewhat more particularly defcribe them. 
They are all of them, by Anatomifis, ufually, but impro- 
perly called Coats : for the inermoft, are the chief Body of 
the Gulet : So that 'tis the fame, as to call the Wood of a 
hollow Plant, one of its Coats. Tis therefore compofed of 
Five Membranes 5 Three in the middle,lined with a Fourth^ 
and faced with a Fifth. 
TheUtmoft, andthelnmoft, are both Cuticular. The 
Inmoft, or Glandulata , exceeding white, and very fri- 
able : anfwerable to the outward Rind of the Root of a 
Plant. 
The next to it, is the Nervous. Which here 5 and in fome 
other Voraceous Animals, is fo very thick, that it may 
more properly be called the CORPVS NERVOSVM. Com- 
pofed of Fibers, partly running by the length of the Gukt, 
and in part tranverjly to thfftwo Mufcular Membranes.
