The Stomachs and Guts. 
which is cunons herein, is, That us furnifhcd with a con- 
fiderable number of oblique Plates, about 465 23 or 
thereabout, on each fide oppofitely 5 exactly like to thofe 
in the Abomafus of a Sheep. 
TheLaft, or Stercoraceum, is lix inches long 5 < of an 
inch over, where wideft. And hath one or two Contracti¬ 
ons, as in a Squirel. 
The Gulet, Stomach and Guts of a MOUSE,are little dif¬ 
ferent. Only the Glands of the Guts fewer 5 and the Caecum, 
lefs. 
On the contrary, in a SHREW-MOUSE, the Caecum is 
rather greater, being i d of an inch over, and two inches 
long. Yet the Body of the Animal five or fix times lefs than 
that of a Rat. 
CHAP. Ill 
Of the Stomach and Guts of fuch Animals as are hath 
Frugivorous and Graminivorous ; as the Rabbit, 
Horfe, and Pig. 
<*A Rabbit. 
'T'He Gulet of a RABBIT is inferred into the middle of 
the Stomach, as in a Rat. 
The Stomach (haped almoft like a Dogs, but bigger, with 
refpect to the Animal. Its inner Membrane is gather’d up 
into feveral little Plates, like thojfe in a Man. At the End 
next the Pylorus, much thicker, and more Glandulous, Ner¬ 
vous, and. Mufcular than in any other part. 
The Guts, without the Caecum, are four yards long. In 
number, five. The Eirft, or Jejunum, about four feet long, 
and i an inch over. 
The Second, or Ileum, as long 5 and above! an inch over. 
Whereas in fome, as the Polecat, Dog, Vrchan, the Second 
Gut is fmaller than the Firft. 
The Jejunum is befpnnkled with a great number of very 
fmall Glands: which when the Guts are blown up and dry, 
look like a multitude of little Specks. • Whence the Gut is 
more opacous than the Ileum.
