Eufiach'tus (a): Each of the Fibres from this Corpus 
reticulare to form, or be expanded into, a fmall 
Scale, at their Termination on the outer Surface of 
the Cuticle, in the fame manner as other Veflels of 
the Body, where not inferted into any Part, termi- 
nate in a membranous Aponeurofs. But thefe do 
not feem to be the only Parts of the Epidermis , as 
the white Lamella of it are plainly different from 
the black* for as this black Lamella is an Expansion 
of the nervous Plexus, which proceeds from the 
Nerves of the Skin, fo it is very probable, that each 
Series of exhaling and inhaling Veflels, which, in like 
manner with its Nerves, proceed from the Cutis , 
and terminate here, may be expanded into a Mem- 
brane at their Termination * of which Veflels there 
feem to be three more Kinds * viz. the Vafa arteri - 
ofa or exhalantia , the venofa or inhalantia , and the 
Vafa excretoria , or fudorific Duds form the Glands 
of the Skin * each of which proceed from th zLlexus 
of Veflels or Glands, of which the Skin is compofcd * 
and, perforating the Corpus reticulare , terminate in 
a thin membranous Expanfion ; which, from the feve- 
ral Lamella , ox. Strata, of fcaly Membranes, of which 
thefe two accurate Anatomifls, Cowper and Ryfck , 
have obferved the Epidermis to be compofed : So 
that, as the Plexus of Nerves, which form the Corpus 
reticulare , is expanded over the 'Plexus of Veins and 
Arteries which compofe the Cutis, to make them fenfl- 
ble, by their exquilite Senfe, of any external Injuries* 
fo the membranous Expanfion of thefe Nerves, at
