drawn for me in October, 1697* at Tyw. Coll. Oxon • by 
Mr. Burghers, and have been lately compared with the 
Tarts themfelves in Cows, Calves, &c- Tbefe Figures 
are part of many more taken from Preparations at the 
fame time, which were figured in the fame Order as 
drawn. This is the Realon that the Cuts are marked 
in this manner, and it can’t be of ufe to alrer thefe Marks 
and Numbers. 
The Infertions of all the Lymphatick VefTels into the 
Veins can bedifeovered but in few Subjects, and no Fi- 
gure has yet been given of them. 
Thefe Figures fhew the Courfe of the Lympha both be- 
low and above the Subclavians in Men, and Axiilars in 
Dogs. The Lymph a below the Receptaculum Chyli is con- 
veyed from all the inferiour Parts by a great number of 
fmall Lymphatick Veflels, which uniting with others ob- 
liquely above the Valves, become bigger in proportion, 
till at length they conftitute two large Trunks near the 
Emulgents, which are the Pedunculi or Beginnings of the 
Receptaculum Chyli. The Lympha from the Parts above the 
Subclavians, is derived in like manner from leffer Lym- 
phaticks, to the common Duds that are here delineated. 
1 know Fecquet has given a Cut of the Thoracick Dud 
in a Dog ; which Dud is double from the Receptacle, and 
is inferred by four Branches into each Axillar. I believe 
with * Bartholin?, (who has borrowed this Figure from 
Fecquet ) that fuch an Infertion is a Lufus Nature. For 
tho’ the Thoracick Dud may be double, and is fometimes 
divided into two Parts near the Subclavians, yet general- 
ly it is Tingle, the Lymph a from all parts on both fides the 
Body being carried by proper Lymphxduds into one 
common Thoracick Dud, that conveys this Liquor, to- 
gether with the Chyle from the Ladeals, into the left
