the Bladder there are fattened to the Peritoneum the two 
t Ovaria or Tefticles, the Extreams of the || Cornua Vteri y as 
alfb the AU Vteri. The numerous branches of large 
* blood veflels that run to them, afforded a very plealant 
fight. To the Navel were fattened the Vena & t Arte*

(g) Bartholine and Jo. Dan. Major do both exprefiy de- 
ny that it hath any Omentum ; But in that which we di£ 
fefted we obferved a pretty large one ; but not exten- 
ded over the Guts as in other Animals, but drawn up and 
lying loole between the Stomach and Inteftines. ’Twas 
fattened to all the Stomachs, and received from them a 
great number of Sanguinary Veffels. It had its duplica- 
lure as in Quadrupeds, but no fat on it. Its whole tex- 
ture feemed to be nothing elfebutan admirable Schema- 
tifin or Network of Veffels and Fibres, which our naked 
Eye as well as Gaffes could difcover, and is in part repre- 
fented in Fig. 6. Tab. 1 . (Jj) Ronddetius does mention an 
Epifloum in Dolphins, as alfb does ( / ) Severinus in his 
P^^, which he does defcribe to be without fat, which I 
rather think is natural, than, as he fuppoles, by a com 
tabefcence. 
On the Omentum feveral Glandulous Bodies are fatten- 
ed, * a large round one growing thereon near the firft 
ftomach about thebignels of an ordinary Wallnut, be- 
ing of a dark flefh Colour, and having a great many veC 
lets common to it with the ftomach, which Bartholim 
calls the vafabrevia. At a fmall diftance from this are 
placed feveral other leflerones, fomeof the bignels of an 
Hazel Nut, others of a Pea or Pepper Corn, in all in 
number about 1 o or 1 2 .
