Of Quadrupeds, 
The Guts may be reckon’d Four. The Firft, which 
reacheth to the C cecum , above i a yard long 5 and near S of 
an inch over. 
The Ccecum very large, near three inches long, and about 
i an inch over. Lies fpirally wound up on it felf. 
The Third, about three inches long, not above * th of an 
inch over. 
The Laft, about as long. Hath two Contractions and 
Dilatations 5 where wideft, * of an inch over. All the Guts 
together without the Ccecum, not i of a yard : the fhorteft of 
all yet defcrib’d.

In thefe two together, are eleven or twelve Clufters of 
Glands $ every Clufter about the breadth of a Spangle. 
The Third, or Ccecum, contained by a Ligament in an
