CHAP. II. 
Of the Stomach and (juts of the Mole ; which feems 
to feed on InfeUs. As alfo of the Urchan, Squirel, 
and Rat j which are chiefly Frugivorous. 
A SKdole. 
TTHeGuietofa MOLE, is not fallen d to the End of 
**■ the Stomach, as in the foregoing Animals, but to 
the middle. 
The Stomach fhaped foniewhat like that of a Polecat, 
and is as big 3 being three inches long, an inch and * 
broad, and as deep : which in comparifon with the fmall 
bulk of the Animal, is exceeding great : this Animal weigh-

The Guts, a yard and * long 3 longer than in the Garni-

extreme Curious 3 the Fibers of the Mufcular Membrane,

Both thefe Guts are furniflid with five or fix fmall 
Clufters of Glands 5 each Clufter as big as a little Spangle.

where wideft, I inch over.

Nor any Cxcum nor Colon.
