1 4 The Stomachs and Guts.

large Quadrupeds $ about three inches and ? over, and not 
above \ a yard long. The length of all the Guts ( without 
the C cecum) is about 37 yards. So that the Guts of aHorfe, 
although they come much ftiort of thofe of the Animals 
next mention d : yet in widenefs, much exceed them : So 
as to contain about ten times more than his Stomach. 
That which I procur d was but 1 6 days old. The Gulet 
was torn off, fo that I could only obferve the Infertion of 
it , which is about the middle of the Stomach , as in a 
Horfe. But that of a Hog, I have often feen, and it is very 
thick, mufcular and red. 
The Stomach, was five inches long, and three over. 
Shaped fomewhat oddly 3 in a manner with a double 
Ventricle. The one, and the principal,may be called Venter 
magnus, fhaped like that of Carnivorous Quadrupeds. Very 
thick and Mufcular 3 efpecially in the Neck and at the 
Pylorus. 
Againft the Pylorus (lands a round Caruncle, as big as a 
fmall Filbert Kernel, like a ftopple to the Pylorus. A part I 
think peculiar to this Animal. 
This Ventricle within, hath feveral Folds, about ? th of an 
inch broad, and as deep $ and wind to and and fro, as in 
a Rabbit or a Man. Scituate only about the right End or 
half of the Belly : the other End being, though alfo Muf- 
cular, yet very plain. 
At the left End of this greater Ventricle, another far lefs, 
yet diftincl: one, is appendent. Much after the fame man - 
ner as the Reticulum in a Sheep is to the Panch. Or as the 
Intefiinum Cczcum to the other Guts : for which reafon it 
may be called Cctcus Ventriculus. Separated from the 
greater by a Mufcular Ligament, like a half Value. Where 
it joyns to it, an inch and * over, and thence extended two 
inches in length $ ending in a twifted or hooked Cone. Not 
fo Mufcular, as the greater Venter, but thin and Membra- 1 
nous. The inner furface alfo plain, or without Folds. Yet 
is it Glandulous, as the other: but the Mucus the Glands 
yield fomewhat thiner. 
The Guts of this Pig ( fo young ) were near fourteen 
yards
