(ft) C after ins faith, is difficult to defer ibe, prfifertim cum 
pro diver fit ate fubjeclorum , earn quoq ; van an utplurimum 
contingat ; but in none, as hitherto I have oblerved^ more 
II c c . than in this. For ’tis H protuberating beyond the Annu- 
lar is 0 above an Inch and %. ’Tis two diftinct Carti- 
lages, joyned together by a ftrong membrane. At the 
ft Tab . 1. end it has f thick lips, and in the middle a f RimuU which 
Fig.^-a- (V) Vefalius makes to be the Glottis , though thole that 
make here live Cartilages do reckon this to make up the 
* Ta b, 1. number. The * Epiglottis was no Ids remarkable, and 
fii+VDD. its ftructure as different. ’Twas about two Inches in 
length, large at its bafts ^ and fattened to the narrow part 
of the Annularis . As it alcends it becomes narrower, 
having its fides more doled together. At its extream it 
hath a large thick lemicircuiar lip which lerves to cover 
th z Rimula or Glottis , though not protuberating much 
over it as in other Animals. The various Muldes that 
did lerve to govern the Motion of thefe Cartilages were 
no lefs admirable and curioully contrived. But in this 
Angle fubjed we had not lealure to go through with 
them, being more intent upon the Vifcera . We obler- 
ved the Glandule Thyroids to be pretty large,

duplication, yet I find he hath committed a double mi- 
Hake concerning it ; for it confifting as it were of two 
parts, the one he makes, I know not how, the Osftemi , 
tire other the ClavicuU. The firft, which in his figure he 
gives us for the Os ftemi , and laid confided of three Bones, 
in ours it was but one, but was of the figure he hath well 
expreffed it in, viz . triangular or having 3 Precedes, 2 
whereof were two inches long, and in feme parts about
