![*3 The Original o f the obliquely qjf- cender^^Muf- cles. Their double Und. is proved by the common A'^ion, ofwhich beneath. The Ufe [ according to ^olanus, who faith thSt the Os pubis or Share-bone being moveable, doth move this boney ftrudure forvvards, the Ch6(i reifting, or be¬ ing lightly moved, in the Conjugal EmWacement,and in the going of fuchas want Leggs and Thighs. But we daily obferve the Belly to be moved, in fingle per- fons that are chaft, nor doth Nature frame Parts to f up- ply unexpeded defeds of mulcles,but for Natural and Ordinary Adions. fufpeds, that from the fame moveable beginning, that fame bone is drawn obliquely upward, and enclined toward the Cheft, by the help of the mufeles. Thefecondpare is the OsLiquELY Ascendent [ or internal ] having Fibres contrarily fituated : It is fitu- ated next the former, and hath a triangular Figure. Its Original is flefhy, from the Rib of Os 111] : but membranous, both from the tranfverfe Procefles of the Vertebra’s of the Loins, from which it receives Nerves,and from the fharp points of Os facrum. It grows a little by a fle fhy End, to each of the baftard Ribs, and to fome ^ of the true Ribs, but the reft its End turns by little and little into a Tendon, which is double: The one part goes upon the right mufeles, the other beneath, fo that the right doth reft as it were in a {heath, but near the white Line it is reunited, and inferted thereinto. Which J^olanus hath obferved to happen only above the Navil, and net beneath. ,The third pare of the r/^6fM«yc/er,by reafbn of the fight fibres. This pare is commonly reckoned to be but one. Galen doth rightly make thebe- ginning to be flefhy, arifing from the Breaft-foone, on each fide of the Sword-fafhion’d Griftle, and from \ the Griftles of the four baftard Ribs. It ends in a Tendon at the Or PiM. Others contrari- wife, will have the beginning to beherein the Share- bone, and the End above. Butlanfwer. i. That the right Mufeles receive their Nerves in the upper part, viz. one branch of thofe^erves, which were inferted into the oblique defeending Mufcle, and p- thers alfo from the laft of the Back, and from the firft pare of the Loins. 2. A Mufcle ufes not to have a tendinous beginning, and a flefhy End. Other late Anatomifts will have the right Mufeles to have two beginnings and tw'o ends; one beginning and one end intheBreaft, and another in the Share-bones. Who are for this Conceit of theirs, beholden to that new o- pinion touchiog rhe maveablenefs of the Share-bone, ofw'hich I fhali fpeak hereafter. j The Mufiulus recius or ftraight muf- That there are j cle, hath for the moft part three.

But according Mufeles. ng. to Carpus and Cajferius, we fay that fuitable to the mul¬ titude of Inferiptions, there are more mufeles, becaufc I. To every Joynting there comes a Nerve. 2, Ifit were but one, being coritrafted into it fclf, it could not equally comprefs all parts. 3. There fhould be no fuch mufcle in the w'hole body, wherein neverthelefs there arc iliany long ones, without fuch a number of Inferiptions. In the internal Surface of the rjght mufeles, there are tu>o Veins conjoyned, with as many Arteries. The upper called Mammaria, arife 'Jfhe Veins, from the Vena cava, lying beneath the V Claves, the more remarkeable branch ' whereof reaches unto the Duggs, and runs out under the right Mufcle, as far as to the Region of the Navil, where it is terminated. This is met by the other teimed. Ppigaf rica, - which in Women fprings from'the Womb, in men the Vena cava goes upw’ards towards the upper Vein, which be¬ fore it touches, it is for the moft part obliterated. Yet thefe two Veins are fomtimes joyned together by ma- -nifeft Anaftomofis, touching onc’another, at their ends. Hence the Confent is luppofed to arife, between the Duggs and the Womb, the Belly and the Noftrils. For when the Nofe bleeds, • w'e fix Cupping-glaffes to the belly, and the Duggs of Women being handled, it incites them to Venery. The MuJculireBi receive Arteries from the Epieraftrica Artery,and Nerves which The Arteries proceecT from the laft V ertebra’s of the and Nerves. Cheft, The proper ufe of thefe Mufeles according to ntis, is to move the Share-bone forward in Genciaci- on, which hath been already confuted. Spigelius will have them to draw the ^reaft to the Offa pubis or fhare- bones, and the Share-bones to the Bceaft, in a ftraight motion, and fo to bend the Cheft; whence it is, that in Dogs and Apes, they reach as far as to the ]ugulum^ becaufe their Cheft did require very much bowing. But thefe contrary motions, unlefs they be holpen, with thofe incifions of the right mufeles, do involve a difficulty. Belmont fufpedfs that they are ftretched in going up hill,, and that from thence fhortnefs ofbrcath proceeds. Blud faith, that by a general ufe, they make the Belly round, and comprefs it centrally, or towards the middle point thereof. The Pyramidal Muf les. - The fourth pare called the Pyramidal Mufeles, do reft upon the lowerTen- dons of the M?(/ch// refli. Nor are they parts of the right Mufeles, as Vefilius and Colum* bus think; but difiiivft: mufeles, as Fallopius proves with reafons, which are partly convincing, partly vaih. But that they are peculiar mufeles is hence apparent, i Becaufe they are cloathedwirh a pectiliaj'membrane, 2. Their Fibres are different from thofe of the Mufeuli reBi. Tixy rife w'ith a flefliy beginning, \ Their Original. not very broad, from the external | Share-bone, where alfo the Nerves do enter i and'the farther they go upv.’atds, the narrower they grow, till they terminate with a fnarp point, into the ’Tendon of the tranfverfe Mufcle. And from this place I have ob¬ ferved more then once,a fmall and round Tendon pro¬ duced, as far as to the Navil. ■ Pialnnushdih obferved the left Pyramidal Mufcle to be leffer then the right, and when there is but one, it is oftner left then right. .... The \JJe of the Pyramidal Mufcles,is j Their \j{e. to aflift the right mufeles, in cqmprcf* 1 fing the Parts bqiieatH. Hereupam, according as thfi Tendons of the right rqufcles are more or lefs fttong,- fo, fonactimes the Pyramid.al rnufijlcs are jvanting (though rarely } fomtimes they are ftrong, otherwhi- les weak, and fomtimes there is but one. Bauhine faith: Tf they are abfent, then either the flclh joyned to the Heads of the right ones [ which I have often obferved) or the Fat performs their Office. And othejrs will haye them to be as it were certain Coverings of the right mufeles. Fallopius w'ill have the Pyramidal mufeles, to com-* prefs and fquecz the Bladder, w'hen we makeWater^' that the Unn may be forced out.
