This one or common part is the clytoris in the female,, 
and penis in the male; and the great difference in this 
part between the. one fex and the other is fize and per- 
foration for the femen. 
But thofe parts, which are peculiar to each fex, may 
be all perfectly joined in the fame animal, which would 
come up to the idea of the truelt hermaphrodite. 
The hermaphrodites of this kind, which I have feen, 
have always appeared externally, and, at fir ft view, to be 
females : and in thofe fpecies of animals where only the 
female is preferved for breeding, as in llieep, goats, pigs, 
See. they are generally faved as females. 
In the horfe they are very frequent : I have feen feve- 
ral, but never dilfefted any. The moft perfect I have 
feen in this fpecies were thofe in which the tefticles had 
come down out of the abdomen into the place where the 
udder fhould have been ( viz . more forward than the 
ferotum ) and appeared like an udder, not fo pendulous 
as what the ferotum is in the true male of fuch animals* 
There were alfo two nipples, which horfes have no per- 
fect form of, being blended in them with the fheath oe 
prepuce , of which, there was none here. 
The external female parts were exactly fimilar to 
thofe of the perfect female; and, inftead of acommon?
