    ly reckoned, vi^. the proper rubitanccflettlng afide the ocher limilar parts,Veins, Arteries, &c.} of the Brain, longvie. Lungs, Heart, Liver, Gall-bjadder, Spleen, Stomach, Guts, Kid¬ neys, Ureters, Piis-bladder, Womb, Yard, Stones, Mufcles, Kernels. But it is in Vain for him to reckon theie parts as new : for all in a manner arc comprehended under Flelh. For according to Hippocrates and Galers, there is a flefh of the Mufcles, and a flefh of the Bowels, and a flcilrofthe Glandules cr Kernels. But in another palce Galen propounds a thtecfold flefn, I. In a Mufcle, which the Ancients did only cal Flefh. 2. The Parenchyma^ or proper fubftance ofthe Liver, Heart, Kidneys, See. 3. In the Stomach, Bladder, Veins. 4- Bones, chough improperly. Whence we may gather four forts of Flefh. i. Mufculous flefn, which frequently ^ renm Fibrous flefh, and it is foft and red and properly termed flefh. Kndm Hippocrates his Language, by flefh many times is ment the Mufcles. ^2. Vifeerous flefh or the flefh ^ Bowels, Eraftjiratus cals it Parenchyma or an Atfufion of blood j Galen cals it Similar and Ample flefh, which mpporcs the Veflels of the bowels, fills up the empty fpaces, and performs the Adfion. 3. Membranous flefh, or the flefhy fubflance of every Membranous parc,^ as in the Gullet, Stomach, Guts, Womb, bladder. 4. Giandulous flefh, or the flelh of Kernels, which ferves. i. For to fupport the divifions of Veflels. 2. To drink up fuperfluous humors, efpecially wheyifh humors, becaufe the Kernels arc of an hollow Spungy fubftance 5 and there¬ fore they are vulgarly termed Etniinhiones or Clenfers. Thole in the Neck being counted Clenfers of the Head; thole in the Arm-pics, of the Heart; rhofe in the Groyns of the Liver, 3. To moiften the parts for their more eafle motion, or otherwife to prohibit drjmefs. Such are thofe which are fltuate by the Tongue, Larynx, Eye-corners, dec. But the fimilar parts are reckoned to*'be ttn : A bone, a Griftle, a Ligament, a Membrane, a Numbft Fibre, a Nerve, an Artery, a Vein, Flefh and Skin. _ ofthcSimiUt Of thefe fome are flmilar only in. the Judgment ofSenfe, as Veins, Arteries (forae add Muf- cles) others are Amply and abfolucely fimilar. That Veins, Arteries, Nerves, Mufcles arc not _ truly Ample and Amilar, hath been rightly taught by Arijlotle : for a Mufcle confifts of Flelh, Fibres, and a Tendon ; Nerves are made up ofthe Dura and pia Mater, with Marrow: Arte¬ ries, of two different coats; the Veins of a coat f and of Fibres as Ibme will have it) and Valves. Simply and truly Amilar parts are Bones, Griftles, Ligament, Membranes, Fibres, Flefh and Skin. To thefe/owe add the Ureters, the Air implanted in the Ear, See. but in vain. For, i. They arc not parts common to the whole body, but proper to fome parts. 2. The implanted Air of the Ears, is nothing but an implanted fpiric, which cannot be . reckoned among folid parts. Here we are to obferve that all thefeare commonly divided, into Spermatical, Sanguine^ or mixt. The Spermatical are made of feed, and fuch are the-,eight Arft reckoned; which if they are cut a Spey- afunder, they breed not again, nor can they be truly united, but they are joynedtogedler by a ^natical Part Callus in the middle, by reafon of defect of matter dnd.foi'cnacive faculty, which afts not after j the Conformation of the Parts. «•- The Sanguine or flefhy Parts, contfarywife are bred again, becaufe they are fuppofed to be ^ made of Blood, as the Flefh. ‘ _ guinsPart. A mixt Parc is the Skin, of which we fhall treat hereafter, in I. 2. _ ^ For feed and blood arc commonly accounted the two general Principles ofwhichwc are made : fo chat in the Seed there is very little of the material principle,. but much ofthe adtiye, but in the blood much of the material principle, and but a little and weak portion ofthe aflive or efledtive principle. The fivft Rudiments and underwrap as it were df cne parrs, are faid to be made of Seed i and the woofe or fuperftrLifture ofblood flowing in'. But what the.Truth is in Contradiiftion to this vulgar opinion, we have taught in our Anatbmical Conmverfm.' For we are rather to hold, that the parrsiare at Arft made only ofSeed, asbftheir matter; and that the Mothers blood doth nourifh, . arid encreafe and amplifie the Parts. The Skin in compari- fbn to other Parts, hath an indiffererir proportion of Seed, not fo much as the Spermaticalj nor To little as the Sanguinary parts. The Compound or dijp.milar Partizxe, thofe which may be divided into.divers unlike parts, ^ as an Hand cannot be cut into other Hands, but into Bones, Mufcles, Veins, &c. The dif- fimilar parts are by the Phylofopher cjalied Members but they are vulgarly termed Organtcal or inftrumcntal parts. Now in every Organ, there are for .the moft parr, four kinds of parts. For example fake, Organical in the Eye there is, l. That part by wlfich the aftion, vi^. Seeing is performed, namely parts. Chryftallinc Humor. 2. That without which it cannot be performed, as the Opcick Nerve. 3. That by which it is the better performed, as the Coats and Mufcles of the Eyes. 4. That by which the adion is preferved, as the Eye-lids, &c. And bec.'iufc the Difrimilat parts are.more or lefs Compounded, they are divided into four degrees or ranks. . The I. Is fuch as are fimilar ro thefenfe, as a Mufcle, Vein, Artery. The 2. Is made ofthe former and the reft ofthe fimilars, as aFinger. The 3. is compounded of the fccond, as Hand, Foot, &c. The 4. Is compounded ofthe third, as an Auii or Leg. ■ Final ly the Body is di vided into' its gfeateft Members, as by fome into the Head, Cheft, Belly T-hi mop con* and Bladder; hy othexs Arijlotle, Rr/j/hr and into the Head, Neck, Cheft (under they ccmprehCndthe lower Ecllv) and therefore Uippocrats: placed the Liver in the Cheft] the on of the whole ^ ^ A Body of Man.
