Microfcope. But eafily felt by drawing your hand towards 
the head. The lhape alfo of the Teeth is odd and un-

They are taken fometimes upon our Englijh Coaft. 
The Anatomy of the Galem (the Male) is given us by 
Sir George Ent , in Dr. Charleton s Onomaftic. Zoic. Some of 
the moll obfervable Remarks, are the peculiar lhape of the 
Pancreas, and efpecially the Spleen, having a Label produ¬ 
ced from one fide, above twice its own length. Likewife 
the Purfe at the farther end of the Duodenum , into which 
it opens only by a very fmall round Hole, not fo wide as 
to receive the end of ones little finger: all which are de¬ 
ferred and figur’d. He hath alfo growing on the lower

The HEAD of a DOLPHIN, about a foot and I long. 
The Dolphin therefore to which it belong’d, was above two 
yards and half long. In the Skin, ’tis hard to find any 
paffage of found for Hearing. And Ariftotle denies that

of the Dam and her Foetus. 
The HEAD of a DOLPHIN, Idler than the former. 
The TAIL of the DOLPHIN. It is expanded (as al¬
