worm fhewed itfelf under the form of fig. 232. The 
forty-eighth fome eels, like thofe in vinegar. The 
fiftieth day a little white worm was taken upon the fur- 
face of this water B , its body fo tranfparent, that feveral 
little white fibres were difcovered therein, the two mid? 
dlemoft of which being a little feparated, and proceeding 
from the extremity of the body, run parallel to each, 
other, and are united by an arch near the head : it hath 
two black eyes, and two hooks in the fore part of its 
head, as reprefen ted at fig. 233. At G of the fame fig.

fufion. 
Some pinks being infufed in boiling water, which in 
eleven days time fwarmed with animalcules, but very 
fmall, and on the fifteenth day were not to be found, 
only fome worms might be feen on the furface thereof

Of a cold infufion made of a nofegay, com- 
pofed of pinks, rofes, and jeilamin. 
HIS infufion was made the eleventh of May, and 
JL the nofegay cut into pieces for the better placing 
it in the vefiel, and in about three or four days a great 
number of minute animalcules, and fome larger ones, 
were found therein; their figures, colour and motions 
are fo various, that it wpuld be a talk too long to under¬ 
take a defcription thereof. Neverthelels I cannot pafs 
over in filence an animalcule that was found in this 
liquor on the beginning of September. It confided of 
jthree didindt parts, fig. 234. The fird part A is its 
&ead, which advances and retires by jerks. the trunk.
